That's why I have a "profession" (coding), a trade (welding[0]), and capital (investing); all of these things are things that will swim out of a shipwreck with you, as per Simonides: http://mythfolklore.net/aesopica/oxford/412.htm http://mythfolklore.net/aesopica/oxford/412.htm

[0] advice from a welding instructor: "when your entire business is on the back of your truck, you never have to put up with workplace politics"
[1] are there any other kind? "the wine was 15 centimes; the verses worthless"
