One does not just retire and walk away from a viable business. Williams sold for the price of an expensive home on the east end of Long Island, but it still was sold. There is probably another story as to why what is being done at Weaver is the option of choice.

I did, back in 2000, after 15 years.  My music career was starting to take off.

I could afford to, so I closed the business, and sold the assets; manufacturing machines, building, and other related equipment.   I had a few serious bites to buy me out, but all of the deals required me to stay on, hands on, for a year.   I was not interested in that.

 

So I sold of the pieces and parts, so to speak, to others in the same industry I was in.

 

There's a lot more technical stuff, obviously, that went into what I did, but that's the gist of it.  I just wanted to do something else.  The business was fine.
