My Defining Moment - Stakeaments


Recommended Posts

As a follow-up to ObeytheDog's thread from yesterday.Had a defining moment at work on Friday, I realized I no longer want to put up with the corporate enviornment (too much bullshit not enough reward). I work for a fortune 25 company and I am flat out tired of it, 7 years wasted. Time to do something that I really want to do - just need to figure out what that is. I will hand out 2 $5.50 stakeaments to fulltilt tourney42284546 to the best responses for what I should do with the rest of my life, 50/50 with no stakeback. Provide FTP screen name along with response.Tourney starts in 25 minutesShipped to blakheart & BBgun - GLI am in as hotwon

TP/MM??I keeeed, I keeeed...sounds like you need to find something you're passionate about and figure out how to go into business for yourself. Are you married/have kids? Do you have some $$$ in the bank?If you have some cash, I say take a gambool and open a restaurant, you could also look at real estate speculation (market has to turn around, right?). I know how you feel, I have a 9-5 that isn't fulfilling at all, but as a divorced father of 3, I don't have the luxury of starting over at this point. GL to you...bbgun5310 (Cantonment)

All of the above - but not enough money in the bank

Work it backwards-What do you enjoy doing withyour time?How can you make money doing that?I am 44 and am just now reenrolling in school to get a degree in the area I should have been spending the last 20 years. Never too late to figure it out.blakheart916Roseville
