Damn. Hopefully you're doing pretty well now.
I got forced out of my dream job with the car accident. I was traveling the country with poker run and race boats, checking out fine ass women, and working on cool shit so clean, you could eat off it.
When I was 20, I compression fractured 2 thoracic vertebrae working at UPS, had to learn to walk again because of nerve damage. Car accident at 37... 6 herniated discs, torn labrum in my right shoulder, ended up getting a disc replaced in my neck, shoulder surgery, still dealing with low back pain but its mostly manageable. Had to learn how to walk again because my nerves are pretty messed up. Luckily it was a limo company, got some change out of them.
The redhead ex GF I posted in OG, we still talk, might get back with her. She ended up needing 2 discs replaced in her neck and a fusion.
Started trading stocks then moved to futures, did ok, then lost my ass, figured out some of what I was doing wrong and got lucky as hell. Made a friend as he was developing a trading algorithm that can run 24/7. So now I let it make most of my bread, but I trade a little for some extra spending money when the opportunity arises.
Tried to slow things down, bought a 42' sailboat in RI, sailed it to south FL solo having only ever been on a sailboat for a dinner cruise in Hawaii. I was on the ocean heading south the day I splashed her. Never turned back.
