Hence the title of this book. I have been lucky enough to be able to make a buck doing what I loved to do in four careers. First, being in World War II. Second, performing in show business and being involved in the beginning of Television. Third, creating music for the advertising business and fourth, retiring and enjoying the sights in this big beautiful world of ours. By remembering many of the amusing things that happened and be able to pass them on to you readers, fulfills my purpose in writing this autobiography.
