Nice post. Sounds like YOU made some decisions that affected YOU, and now you aren't happy about them. Tough darts.

Want some cheese with your "whine?"

I'm perfectly happy with my decisions. I put the chronology together to demonstrate how long it takes to go from minimum wage to a fairly comfortable salary level. I left out trivial stuff like hanging flyers on 10,000 doorknobs for 4 cents each in high school. Ditto for the fabulous dishwasher/cook/fountain/waiter job in high school. That paid for the high school prom.
