Just curious as to who, on here has been a millionaire in the past?

I would not ask about the present...that's getting too personal, and I respect that.

I hope to be, someday...but for now...just working on it! drinker


Never have been one, never been close....

But I have an idea how to (maybe) go about it, and I'm sort of moving in that direction....




Just keep writing, Lex.

Your books will be right up there with King and Koontz soon.

Then you'll get one of those multi million dollar advances. :thumbsup:

It took me awhile to figure that out!

But, eventually, it made sense -- there aren't that many things I can do well (maybe 2) -- so, if I ever wanted to be filthy rich, I had to find something I can do well that also has the potential to make some money.

So, basically, if writing doesn't do it, I'm screwed!

Healthwise I am doing as good as I can. The doctor wants me to have oxygen at home just in case I need it. I try to walk, do water aerobics, and excerise to improve my lungs.

I miss PA, my family, and friends. I also miss working. It is beautiful here in Florida, but hard to get to know people my age since they all are working.

How are things going with you?

I am thrilled your health is improving, and sad that you feel isolated living where you are. Is there any way you could move back? For me, I started a new job, moved house and continued my schooling. As you know it is a trifle hard making new friends when you move, but I am getting along with some of the people who live in my apartment block ( maybe because they are in my age range) which is nice.As I said earlier, I am on holiday and totally bored! laugh laugh laugh laugh

Moving back home is not an option weather gets too cold in the winter for me. I am staying here until my daughter finishes college, than will follow her to the state she chooses to move to. We both want to go where there is 4 seasons, just on the mild side instead of sever cold or heat. Enjoy your holiday, and I am sure you will find something to relieve the boredom. [color]

Never financially. I'd never see that kind of money if I worked my *** off every day for my entire life. However, if good friends were to count as money, I'd be one of the richest men in the world.

Actually, I own my own business, (Motor Bike Shop), and my business account is a lot more than a million, but does that make me a millionaire, I guess not, unless I closed shop.

Having all the money in the world, would make all your material dreams come true, but once you have everything and once and have done everything and once you have been everywhere, what else is there, your life becomes dull and bored, I have met 3 or 4 millionaires and 1 billionaire, and they are uptight, mood swinging, butt heads and its because they are not happy...

Oh well, good luck becoming rich, I am happy right where I am.

I sat down and had a conversation with a millionaire while in Arkansas, looking for investors in a project.

Something he told me, I'll always remember: "John, it wasn't that hard to make the million, the hardest part was KEEPING it"! He said it was actually harder to hold onto it, than it was to make it! Go figure! whoa
