Since the story was written in the 50's, the writing was kind of dated
but the story itself was pretty good! Strange to think that the more
you have, the poorer you are. I'm sure there's a moral to the complete
story, but it eludes me at present. It slipped right past.

Yeah - this issue of Galaxy looks to have 4 stories in it. I'm gonna
have to check out the others. I don't think they were from Pohl though.

Thanks again!
