Taking The Time to Thank you



I just wanted to take some time out and just really dedicate this to my parents mainly and a few older wiser minds. I have to thank them as I look around at the things they prepared me for and the things I see many struggling with.

By the time I was 12 I was able to cook, clean (till sterile as a hospital), and iron for myself. By the age of 14 basically save and understand finances and responsibility. Heck at age 8 I was already doing chores and beyond. Other things...well I could debate were too early to learn but as my father has repeatedly said, " ..it prepared you didn't it?".........although you could of waited a while longer on some but thank you anyway. By time I was 15 you had taught me in and outs of credit cards, loans, bills, and insurance..of course under some rather creative tactics ....which required me to be even more tactical to outwit....so thank you :P I think I've been playing the bills game all my life...so bills don't worry me. You also taught me how to not limit my options and be content and from there build on that for better.....that kept me from being greedy and provided me a lot of opportunties thanks to that lesson. I know I didn't make it easy for you..

All in all thank you most of all among the other older and wisers who taught me self sufficiency, maturity, priority, humility, work ethic, several life lessons early, and open mindedness in the most creative of manners as expected. :P I hope to do the same for my own if that opportunity arises anytime in the future :P.....This blog is to you....
