“My first real job was at age 14 working for about 20/hrs a week at the leather shop next door. My pay was $1/hr. Since then, I have done a few things, received some parchment from some institutions, started businesses that have failed and leveraged others that have worked out well for us. “Being able to retire” was the goal and I made it happen. Now what?
Yes, I can put on ugly pants and have weekly luncheons with other lonely, bored high-achieving FIPs (Formerly Important Persons). Yes, I can add another wing to one of our houses and I can buy more of the fun toys that I dreamed of when I didn’t have the time or money for them. Meh. Doing that has not been what I expected it to be.
You want to know what I really want though? I want to provide value, have fun and keep my brain sharp.”

*We have had some negative experiences in the past in which we have invested a lot of time training “interested” people who then didn’t really wind up producing real value for us. Essentially, they received free shooting instruction from us. We appreciate good people who have achieved financial success and we think you deserve to relax if you choose to do so. We just need a certain level of commitment to ensure a good ROI for our business. We respectfully insist that as we move forward you promise to work an average of at least 2 shifts each week from June through August.
