Having reached the ripe old age of 55 has brought a lot of new opportunities, many of which I intend to take full advantage of. I have spent my entire working life allowing other people to write my checks, or the way I see it to determine my net worth.
Recently I made a bold move one of which just a year ago I never thought of doing. I RETIRED. Now I know most people wait until they are 62 to 65 or some I have knowen working until they are 72 before they decided to do something for themselves. Enjoy life.
Well I'm sorry but I'm not most people, I have always been different than most, and have always done things differently than others do. So why should this be any differnt than anything else I've ever done.
I remember back in the early 90's when I first learned about the internet, and thought back then what a great opportunity it was going to be for a lot of people. I thought for sure this was going to be a game changer for the markets. But I was never smart enough to figure it out by myself. But i kept plugging along and believing there was an answer out there somewhere.
It has been a great pleasure being a part of the Wealthy Affiliate community and learning the things I only dreamed about a few years ago, and now seeing it become a reality is absoultely awesome.
My life has always been somewhat busy, and trying to fit in the time for study was always a challenge, but that is all about to change. And I couldn't be happier.
