There's no official name for it, but given his background in insurance, Lenny might call it the “Deferred Life Plan.” For the promise of full coverage under the plan, you must divide your life into two distinct parts: Step one: Do what you have to do. Then, eventually— Step two: Do what you want to do. We hear variations on this theme from childhood on: Walk before you run. No peas, no pie. Pay your dues. Or, perhaps in the case of Jack Dolan, as Lenny saw him, work, then retire —assuming you live long enough to retire — and then devote your time to your passion.
