Not knowing anything about the agreement they have in place, BBM may be in a perilous position have their parts cast by Hyundai. Years ago I was with a company that needed castings. We found an excellent foundry that was owned by Kumatsu and had spare capacity. The parts they supplied us were great, and pricing was good. After about 5 years, they told us that Kumatsu's demand had increased and they no longer had the capacity to supply parts to us. We scrambled to find another supplier, but never found one with the quality we had been getting.

No, you can only do what you want after you've made a pot full of money. Until then, you do what you have to. Even RodKnock will agree with that.

Not everyone needs to make a pot full of money. For someone who's a fan of Wabi-sabi, I'm very surprised with this remark.

But for some, the more money we have, the more discriminating we can be.

You shouldn't discriminate; you should be "inclusive."

Ya, I'll be thinking about that the next time I'm deciding between an Old Fashioned or Apple Fritter at the local Donut Shop. Just get both.
