By New York had become so central a market for the green bean, that William Penn, as soon as he found himself comfortably settled in the Pennsylvania Colony, sent over to New York for his coffee supplies [92]. Not to be dissuaded from his quest and certain that the Caribbean would be the perfect location for cultivating coffee, he bides his time, playing out his role as charming guest of the court and enjoying all the merriment that was offered up, including liquor, numerous beautiful be-rouged and be-powdered women, who were clad in their finest, and at times, were seduced out of their finest by the handsome, irresistible Gabriel.

  • Little Old New York
    • ^^Ih COPYRIGHT, 1910, BY OXFORD PUBLISHING COMPANY POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. tlTTLE OLD NEW YORK NEARLY three hundred years have elapsed since a httle colony of thirty families was planted on the lower end of Manhattan Island, by the Dutch West India Company. A fort was staked out, a few rude houses built, and the colonists began the cultivation of their plantations. They called the island New Amsterdam, and were in a thriving, but^ defenceless, condition when attacked by the English in 1664. Governor Stuyvesant formally sur- rendered New Amsterdam, and the name was changed to New York. Ij was recaptured by the Dutch in 1673, but a treaty of peace in 1674 restored it to the English, under whose rule it remained until the close of the struggle for American Independence. The population of New York in 1700 was less than 6,000; in 1800 it had reached 60,000 with but few build- ings -north of Grand Street. At the site of the present Tombs building was Fresh Water Pond 60 feet deep and over 500 feet in diameter, the outlet of which crossed Broadway at Canal Street, and found its way to the Hudson. In 1860 the population of the city was 814,254, and its tremendous growth within the last half century is almost incredible. Thirty storied buildings, mile long bridges, elevated roads and subways, reveal the limitless powers that here exist to satisfy the necessities of the greatest city in America with a population in 1910 of 4,766,883. .V PLAN OF FORT AMSTERDAM, Situated near the Battery.

  • Optimal Retirement Income Tontines
    OPTIMAL RETIREMENT INCOME TONTINES MOSHE A. MILEVSKY AND THOMAS S. SALISBURY Abstract. Tontines were once a popular type of mortality-linked investment pool. They promised enormous rewards to the last survivors at the expense of those died early. And, while this design appealed to the gambling instinct, it is a suboptimal way to generate retirement income. Indeed, actuarially-fair life annuities making constant payments { where the insurance company is exposed to longevity risk { induce greater lifetime utility. However, tontines do not have to be structured the historical way, i.e. with a constant cash flow shared amongst a shrinking group of survivors. Moreover, insurance companies do not sell actuarially-fair life annuities, in part due to aggregate longevity risk. We derive the tontine structure that maximizes lifetime utility. Technically speaking we solve the Euler-Lagrange equation and examine its sensitivity to (i.) the size of the tontine pool n, and (ii.) individual longevity risk aversion γ. We examine how the optimal tontine varies with γ and n, and prove some qualitative theorems about the optimal payout. Interestingly, Lorenzo de Tonti's original structure is optimal in the limit as longevity risk aversion γ ! 1. We define the natural tontine as the function for which the payout declines in exact proportion to the survival probabilities, which we show is near-optimal for all γ and n. We conclude by comparing the utility of optimal tontines to the utility of loaded life annuities under reasonable demographic and economic conditions and find that the life annuity's advantage over the optimal tontine is minimal.

[T]he tontine is perhaps the most discredited ' 2 financial instrument in history. A tontine is an investment scheme through which shareholders derive some form of profit or benefit while they are living, but the value of each share devolves to the other participants and not the shareholder's heirs on the death of each shareholder. The tontine is usually brought to an end through a dissolution and distribution of assets to the living shareholders when the number of shareholders reaches an agreed small number.3 If people know about tontines at all, they tend to visualize the most extreme form - a joint investment whose heritable ownership ends up with the last living shareholder.
