RE: Zaza doesn’t take a wage24 Feb 2020 23:34
Not the only retirement fcuked up, my story.
2006 I made a career change after 22 Yrs, ended up in the mid east, but prior to that I lost my son, had another little one who was born a congenital Paraplygeic, now 21, my daughter has gone through a host of trials in her life, and is a fighter despite her life now.
I wanted my kids to live the life I didn't, they have never wanted for anything from me, I have done my best and continue to do so. In 2007 I found the share market, borrowed 20k from the ex father in law ( don't go oh know, I paid him back, mind he bought my daughter a car out of it :-) really nice fella)
Since 2007 I have chased the dream of wealth or to be comfortable in the knowledge my kids would be financialy comfortable when I'm gone. I went from nothing to 1/2 Million to nothing chasing the dream, some may say greed, I think that now and again, but just want my kids to be ok. I have had good paid jobs but paid the price, worked away for years, missed them growing up, lost good mates I'm my work.
I have always made sure there is a roof over our heads, food on the table, belived and supported who needed me, and I don't think I have ever let them down. I was in EDL, lost a lot of money, GKP sold at the wrong time, BPC was another dream and moved everything from there to FRR after I saw something in someone who I thought would not let me down. In the end I make the decisions, I listen, I control my money, I make the investments , no one else. Yes I look to blame people or companies etc etc, they may have loaded the gun, but I pulled the trigger. ( Been in a host of other dog s##t shares controlled by Aim crooks, parasites who feed off weakness, nievity.
I will have to work years to get my life back, I will never earn again what I have lost, but my kids will never want for anything whilst I live ( insurance is sorted for them life wise :-) . I do hope we could could recover something, I live on Rainbow riders posative comments now and again, makes me chuckle. I have seen somethings around the world, and to be honest I eat, drink, sleep, breathe, a lot of others don't, that's how I keep going.
If we don't get anything back, Zaza, I have a set of skills :-) Lol. Not everyone is the same, all different needs, stories, but that's a skirmish over mine. Good luck all, and I hope the story has a happy ending.
PS, no need for any all the best etc, was just to show some people you are not alone.
