Don't think that has wings. Wager of Battle was successfully used in Ashford v. Thornton in 1818 as it was determined that lack of recent use did not abrogate a legal right, but (according to J.H. Baker) Parliament did revoke it the following year.

Some books are such profound meditations on compassion that it's hard not to feel the author is writing from fundamental kindness themselves. Maybe this is flawed, but I don't know how not to do it? Not idolizing all aspects of them as people, but awed by the wisdom their writing shows.

NBC led in the first primetime broadcast with it, but I have only heard brief excerpts since (and a weird guitar interpretation). The piece isn't actually called Olympic fanfare BTW--it's "Bugler's Dream" by Leo Arnaud. People outside the US don't associate it with the Games at all!

There are reasons to do it that way (you'll prob be in a lower tax bracket when you're retired) but you'll still shell out a chunk of what you have. As you research, check up on Roth IRAs and see if you might want to have some of your funds in one of those as well, is my suggestion
