OK, EpikTrades, here goes. Went to college right out of high school and was only interested in chasing girls and drinking beer-flunked out. Went to a smaller college and got married-finally studied. Back then you had 4 years to get a degree then you got drafted. My brother who is 18 months younger was at Auburn University and behind too so we just joined the Army together. They talked us into enrolling in Infantry Officer Candidate School to get to become an officer-hardest thing I have ever experienced, but we both made it-about half did not. He was sent to Viet Nam and me to Germany. We both got home OK and I went to Un. of Alabama and got a business degree and he returned to Auburn and got a masters degree in fisheries biology-he was very successful. Was in real estate, insurance, sporting goods retail store owner-times were bad so sold and had a friend who started and owned a successful manufacturing co. He hired me as sales manager and I finally did good. My wife and I really struggled financially most of our married life. But we are now financially secure with money in the bank and no debt. But what a wonderful family God blessed us with. I was always active-played golf every weekend, have fished all over the South including the Gulf, was an avid jogger for 20 years till my back went out-canoed rivers, but did not like hunting. I will be 75 tomorrow. In relatively good health. Met (on a message board) Kgem and have been hanging with him on stocks for 10-12 years. UNVC will be icing on my cake-for my family and those in need. God moves in mysterious ways. JB
