I'm not rich compared to some of the folks on this board. I'm not powerful. I don't have women beating down my door or following me around town.

I definitely consider myself lucky (good) or feel like I lead a charmed life. I think it's about attitude. Whether it's that I tend to view things in a positive way when they happen, or my attitude means that I create my own opportunities or make the most of opportunities when they come or because I've got an angel on my shoulder, I don't know. It's probably a combination of all of the above.

In almost all instances, I can have something happen that seems or would usually be considered bad, and usually whether it's an hour or a week or 6 months later, I can look back and see how that lead me to something that ended up being an improvement in my situation or to my benefit.

Yeah, I'm lucky.
