I have been a enjoying the forum for quite some time. I thought I might be able to entertain some of you with my good, bad and ugly moments in my 58 years.
Good
I have been able to accumulate a substantial net worth but even better I have dione so by working a job that I love and living in a small town that I love. My wife and I have been married for 32 happy years and we have 3 kids. Lesson learned - focus on living a good life and everything else will follow.
Bad
I was not able to attend college and wish I had the opportunity to do so when I was young. I suppose I did the next best thing by spending my free time at the school's library reading about business and investing when I was 20. Lesson learned - people who have a college degree should feel very blessed and I made sure all 3 of my kids had the opportunity.
Ugly
Dad gave me the boot when I was 17 and I had to spend a few years working some real ugly jobs for little money. I suppose you have to do what you have to do to survive but I would rather forget those years. Lesson learned - if you don't like what you are doing, do something about it.
Anyway I suppose that is my introduction and I look forward to posting every now and then when the weather is bad. Nice to have found a place full of bright people.
