The group of retired friends who meet every Saturday morning at a Salt Lake City, Utah, deli were growing tired of the same conversation each week.
Sure, they were solving the world's problems. But they wanted more excitement in their Saturday morning. They wanted to share their wisdom beyond their friend group of seven. As a lark, they set up a card table at the nearby Salt Lake City's farmers market and told people they were dispensing free advice.
"We were sitting outside, bored stiff from talking to each other, and I said, 'You know what? I'm going to get us a booth across the street at the farmers market, where we can give advice," said Tony Caputo, founder of a deli with his namesake where the group usually meets.
