As such, the inventory changes to squeeze more money from folks like me who come back a year later and can't figure out why the hell the Puritan socks they had last year are no longer on the shelf. I just want someone to offer me a product that I like and deliver that same great product to me for 20 years. Won't someone take my money?

If you're returning for the same socks year after year, why not simply buy 20 years worth of socks?

Cash poor, cash-flow rich.

Edit: Strictly speaking, I have a liquidity preference. I tend to think that others do too.
