I actually haven't found this to be true.  In my experience good and
honest behavior are rewarded (for the most part) by a nice spot at
the end of the line.  There are some rare exceptions, but most nice
guys (in my experience) really do seem to finish last.

Then again, I don't do the good and honest thing in hopes of it
being returned (nor do I suggest you or anyone else does) - I do it
because it's good and honest and I like to sleep at night.

Feeling a little cynical lately...

You?  Cynical?  Not *our* Mike Stanley!
