Not there yet, but somehow I seem to be the getting there.

Early 20's I was foreman at a window company and growing weed. Owned a house at 21. A few stints in jail, a major motorcycle accident, and marriage/child slowed my roll considerably, but I'm in a chill trade averaging about $1,600/wk right now, so I'm not complaining.

Seen my first big check in 98....

working at a fortune 500 company with great job security being part of the union

while still in college...no kids....
