The type of jobs that I’ve had

What jobs have you had?

I’ve been an independent contractor for 40 years. Whether it be security, cleaning, or consulting. It’s been the type of work that I wanted to do basically because it allowed me freedom. I’ve run my own business, but when working for somebody else, I’ve always had the freedom to still do what I wanted to do and that’s why I enjoy the type of work that I do. If there’s one thing that stands true, you have to enjoy the work that you do or you shouldn’t do it just for a paycheck because in the end you’ll be the one who suffers the most.

Do I practice religion?

Do you practice religion?

I practice the principles of religion. I practice the 10 Commandments, or the six which ones you ever believe in. Today’s modern man I don’t practice pretty much what they believe in I practice like I say the principles of religion the good. Because when you talk about religion, a lot of people use religion for evil, and say it in the name of God, or the name of Jesus. Religion in some ways it’s not used for what it was meant to be used for and that’s the sad thing.

Life before the Internet

Do you remember life before the internet?

Life before the Internet, people actually had to go out and research, nowadays they don’t have to. in my belief. I believe that the Internet didn’t make us smarter. It made us somewhat lazyer, but it brings information fast, but it still makes us lazy when it comes to actually going out there and doing work for ourselves. That’s my opinion.

Having it all

What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

What does having it all mean to me?At this point in time it means absolutely nothing if you’re not happy. I believe in being truthful, and when I answer these questions, I’m giving you my truth. When my wife was alive, I was happy. now I’m searching for happiness. So my happiness can be obtained, but sometimes true happiness comes with a lifetime not just a moment.

Personal belongings

What personal belongings do you hold most dear?

My most personal belongings that I hold most dearly, that would be my memories the good and the bad that’s what I hold most dearly my memories because they’ll never go there only fade when I fade.
