I have almost nothing because of stupid decisions, I've even spent a summer living out of my p/u behind the post office in BB when I was homeless for about 2yrs. and I'm still basically a loser in most peoples eyes because I have almost nothing at 47. Yeah I got problems but there only mine and I'm the only person whom I am hurting. So take it from someone who has been there and still is. Fishing should not even be in the top 10 when it comes to important things in life.
If I added up everything I own it wouldn't even equal $10k and most likely is closer to $5k. And as far as lifetime income earned I might be over $100K but no where near $200k total lifetime income, so yeah I know where that road goes.

Don't be a Nitwit, it's still only a fish.
Now if it's throwing it all away at girls who win wet T-shirt contest I'm your man to talk to. . . . . . . hormones are a funny thing. . . . . work smart not hard.

May fortune favor the foolish....

Thanks Tagger, I'll bet you never would have thought I live the way I do just by my appearances and actions but that may help some folks understand my sometimes wacky point of view. I know I'm out there but I cause no harm to anyone being the way I am in fact catch this I still don't have health care even with it being available at no cost to me because I feel no one should have to contribute their tax dollars towards me. I would like to get a tetanus shot because I haven't been to a doctor in about 14yrs. but I know if I go they are going to enroll me and that to me is not right, I wish you could get one just like the flu shots.
Opps....getting off topic but I felt the more I exposed myself the more he would listen and realize I speak from first hand negatively impacted experience.
Me a motivational speakerwouldn't that be like an honest politician? I a very unsuccessful person telling others how to be a success
