Oy! Well I went from 8 years military to 12 years of sailing around and taking jobs in between sailing as a wooden boat shipwright. Then owned a boatyard for a bit. Now I'm building furniture for the radio and television industry and cutting furniture parts on a CNC router. Also seem to do a lot of cat herding these days as well....

Student at Finlandia University in Hancock, MI pursuing an AAS degree in Criminal Justice. Will be graduating in April.

As far as paying bills, I am primarily a pizza jockey. I have some adventures on the side in repossessions of vehicles and other assets as well as some fugitive recovery work as well. So I am a full time pizza delivery driver and part time repo man and part time bounty hunter.

Grandfather, father, husband, brother, uncle, nephew, in-law, insurance agent...in approximately that order.

Great thread! It's really interesting to see so many varied interests, experiences and careers. Many have had multiple careers - so that is not something "of the future" as convential wisdom suggests - but "of now". Interesting......That, and the common bond of self-improvement, self-defense, and weapons.

I'm a corporate tax consultant with my own firm, after twenty plus years with a large "Brand X". A real conversation stopper generally......LOL...........

Used to be a CFO and was in the reserves (USAF).
