You have a question.
You have a question. That is why you are here, and that is enough to begin. For more than forty years I have made my living by finding answers, and I would be glad to find yours. Grand or small, technical or personal, you name it, I take it, and I get you a little closer to the finish line.
- Ask a question. Tell me what is on your mind, and I will help, or point you to someone who can.
- Explore how I help. Wander through the services and find where your need fits.
- Read a little wisdom. Browse the insights, freely and honestly given.
How it works
- Ask, in your own plain words.
- We talk. The first conversation is on me.
- Then we find the way. I research it honestly and hand you something you can use, or point you to who can.

About
About the Old Man with a Cane
The Old Man is not an apology for age. It is a badge earned over four decades of work, a childhood spent on a university campus, and a lifetime of asking better questions.
An honest word
I am not a lawyer, a doctor, or a financial advisor.
And I will never pretend to be. When your question truly needs one of those, I will guide you to the right door. Everywhere else, consider me fair game.
