Thought of Horstmans Wager when listening

 M&M,

Working my way thru casts and just got thru this one.  Actually thought of Horstmans wager as well....  What if you had just implemented, or thought of implementing, some strategies to cope with the downturn. But then you decided not to stick thru the downturn and jump ship.  And then your strategies actually worked!  

You'd get no credit for it and in fact your successor would get all the credit. Sort of the 4th quad of the Hortsmans Wager matrix.

Again, another great cast.  Keep 'em comin...
