I’m 66 years old and a high school graduate. I’ve not seen one mention in this string of creating a business or filling a niche. In 50 years of working, 48 of those years were spent working for myself and creating jobs as well as products and services. The rewards include a nice collection of cars, RV’s, an apartment building in PB with an owner’s suite, a ranch in Colorado and piece of mind as everything is paid for and has been for the last 25 years.

It’s been said that a high school graduate in the 1950’s got an education at least equal to two years of junior college. For the record, in the San Diego Unified School District, the dollar amount spent per student was $396 for the 1959-1960 school year. Today that number exceeds $7,000 and at least half of the students entering college have to take remedial math and English!

If there’s one constant theme running through this string, it’s the idea that someone else is to blame. Suck it up people and take responsibility for your life.
