Yes, I am by hard work and determination. Unfortunately, the only way to do it is by changing jobs. In my case due to circumstances beyond my control, I am looking for my next job that will move in the direction I need to go. Additionally I am starting two other companies on my own.
No, I am not.....anymore. I have finally come to the conclusion that I want more out of life than just my career. I love to write, buy and sell antiques and books, metal detecting, travelling and more. At this stage of my life I no longer aspire to climb the corporate ladder. I am formulating a plan to retire early and spend the next several years in pursuit of life and happiness. During my early years I never had the money to do the things I wanted and now I never have the time due to my career. After all these years I have finally realized that I want the "time" much more than the money.. By October I will be free and I can't wait.....life I'm back!!!

Ladies & gentlemen, due to circumstances beyond my control, I regret to inform you that this will be my last 'cool hubbers' hub. Some individuals feel that these hubs are being unfair to people who are not featured, which is unfortunate, as my intentions were positive and in no way meant to...
