What Mac said is true, with liability up 30% this year vs no claims, chasing money, bids, paperwork.....It's still work, Bill, but a hell of a lifestyle change from managing money. FWW and I have discussed this before. I was there during the true bull market. Divorce brought my world down and I left the business as I couldn't focus enough until I squared things up enough to be comfortable in my own skin. It was during that time that I truly became passionate for striper fishing, which I often did alone. I will never make the same money again, but I truly enjoy what I do and seeing a quality finished project that has my name on it.

At the beginning of the year I started my own Plumbing Co.
by the end of Feb. I ended the idea and got a job. I was
working 80 hrs. to get paid for 30. I got a regular job again
and now I am playing catch up with all the bills working 60
hrs. a week but my free time is my own. and when I leave
work work stay's there.

But in five years I would like to become a teacher so I can
have summers off and fish everyday/ night

Surfcasting Full Throttle

Don't judge me Monkey

Any job that you have to go to everyday will suck eventually.
