Scifos.... Your life has just begun dude!

When I turned 23 (20 years ago) I had been running my own business (machine shop) for about six months. I lived in a one bedroom apartment with my wife, we had been married for two and a half years. I delivered parts to my customers in a 1965 Ford stationwagon.... I'd set up a job on a manual vertical milling machine and get my wife to run the parts. She was a pretty good machine operator.lol I had an old couch in the shop that I would sleep on for an hour or two because I worked so many hours without going home and I was delerious from lack of sleep. I bought my first CNC Machining Center with cash before I was 24. I never thought about my salary, just wanted to do a good job for my customers. Those were the days!....

I didn't trade stocks till I was about 27 and I didn't even know what a moving average was, had never heard of IBD.... nor did I have a PC.... I paid a lot of money to the stock market school of hard knocks too. I wish my knowledge of the markets at age 30 was what your is now at 23.... You already have a huuuge edge fella.... Give em heck!.... and don't waste time, it's very precious.

Happy Birthday!

Thanks everyone. I did wear green, and I do count myself lucky that I have a lot of investing years ahead of me and a HUGE group of very smart people here.
