She said: 2 items off-limits; we don’t wanna hear about kids or graduations…nobody gives a shît

On a serious note
I guess sitting in a bankruptcy attorney’s office and him reaching over his shoulder and giving me and the wife Dave Ramsey’s book in June 1997, tell us not to come back till we read it.
Then by Summer of 1999 paying off $70,000 credit card debt, 2 car notes and the house. Going down to The Registrar’s Office getting a copy of Release of Lien and framing it Word.

I think coming to certain realizations and perspectives along the way as I got older, and becoming wiser through evaluated experience over the passage of time as I lived life…those were to me the biggest milestones…those accomplishments were significant. Even in comparison to the usual accomplishments that many of us attain in life (like college degrees and good jobs and healthy kids and such).
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.
