I honestly can't remember the last time I bought a new book.
@sneakypete My father was a vociferous reader, as am I... I don't do books much anymore, because I hate using cheaters...
But, suffice it to say that one of my dad's legacies was in the form of an account at a little back alley used book store. That account has funded myself and my sons - Whatever we want in the way of books - We have not paid a dime in the many years since he passed.
Of course, it is a revolving account - Books bought can be returned (sold back) at a discount... So it isn't exactly that it is free. But neither has it cost a single dime in all this time.
Such a benefit to us all, and he did it all unknowingly. And the bookstore owner could have refused to honor the account after Dad's death, nor his son, who took over when the bookstore owner died... But he did, and he did. That account is the very last active piece of my dad's business in this earth, and it will probably be active long after I am gone. It has turned out to be a wonderful gift.
