Loading ...I saw your post, which was all true…flood irrigating hay fields for Bill Keeler on 50,000 acre Dye Creek Ranch in Red Bluff (Los Molinos) CA as a long teenager.
After that I went on to Real Estate sales, Consumer Finance HFC and GECC, Life insurance (Variable Annuity sales…#1 in the USA ), Alaska State Manager for two insurance Co’s, (Aetna and Hartford), was at the top of my career (and exhausted) so I retired and moved to Canada at age 33 and changed the entire focus of my life , Learned the log home building trade and built 3 log homes in BC, moved off the grid and built a cattle ranch out of the Canadian bush, developed my own hydro power system, was issued the 3rd BC Woodlot and logged 100 logging truck loads of sawlogs every winter, was the Sanitary Landfill (dump) Contractor for 3 northern BC Communities, and the Forestry Hydroseeder Contractor for Northern BC….Then lost my wife to a highway accident (hit by out of control logging truck on black ice…instant death), I literally hit bottom and quit everything…. sold my cattle, sold my ranch and for 2 years did nothing; then re-married (my late wife’s best friend) and started life again. Now happily married again for 30 years, began stock market investing with the new century, SNG, missed the 2008 PM top but cashed out in 2011 with over a million of OPM.
My life’s motto has been “anything works if you do, but nothing works if you don’t”!
But now I’m just a Conspiracy Nut . That’s okay. I have always won life’s game. Luck to all from SNG!
