    You going to laugh, but I love to drive big trucks, have driven 49 states and have traded in all of them, before it was using WiFi or multiple cell phones, and if I get healthy enough, might give it another run, Love the open country, can see ahead of me at least a mile whereas cars only see car in front of them. And since everything near and dear to me is/can be automated, am not losing funds of trading. I love grilling lunch, veggies on a skewer, make pancakes and bacon on top of the engine. I get to visit many ex-students I have helped and usually whoever am mentoring at the time, vacation every month somewhere for 4-5 days. Work for someone else and still make 75-90k plus bennies, and still have Businesses going back home. Do it till it becomes a job or time to buy a farm, am in that Business phase right now of learning about farming/ranching. I rarely have found work to be jobs, more like something interesting to do until it isn't. What do they say "cut the losers and let the profits run"?
