Description

Takashige discusses more about his career work in the manufacturing business. He would have some trouble in his partnership and end up having to buy him out, running the business on his own. At the same time, he would also be heavily involved with the 100th club, and begin putting on Japanese shows in order to raise money for the club. His first show would end up netting $15,000.00, half of which would go to a Nagoya relief fund which was at the time going through flooding problems. After this, he talks more about his manufacturing career, selling to duty free and making shirts for the club. Later, due to health problems, he would retire from the manufacturing business.
