EXTENDED BIO
I am a wanderer. I have never been satisfied with things as they are. Yes I suffer from the "Grass is Greener Syndrome". I have been a ditch digger and a GM of a mid-sized mortgage company. I have worked as a fry cook and the Branch Manager for a major Brokerage firm. A roofer, a new car salesman, an IT Network Admin, a landscaper, a radio DJ and the list goes on.
30 years of exposure to such a variety of professions and vocations has given me a wealth of knowledge and a unique insight of the world around us. My family and I have enjoyed the savings I have experienced by being able to do many things for myself rather than needing to hire someone else to do the job. As a consumer, I am much more aware than the average consumer of the tricks, games and ploys used by companies to try and dig more from my wallet.
True, some may refer to me as a job hopper. But how many computer geeks can roof their house? What does a car salesman know about investing? Know any Stock Brokers who can change a water heater? Yeah, I did not think so.
Yes, Life has been good so far.
