We should all swap problems; everyone knows how to solve the other guy’s.

You know, every now and then in a person’s lifetime, someone comes along who really leaves an impression on you. 

I met an interesting man this week.  He is 76 years and builds tract houses in Mariana, Florida.  This is his third career enterprize.  He grew up on a farm in Florida, then when he was 24 years old he moved to Richland Center, Wisconsin where he was a dairy farmer.  Eleven years later, he moved back to Florida and continued dairy farming for another 31 years. Then he sold his farm and started a construction business.  After a few years, he sold his construction company and retired.  But retirement didn’t work for him, so he went into the housing business.  Now he buys land, develops it, and builds houses.  That’s impressive.
