How ironic is this coming from a guy who says that I wasn't cut out for this job??????!!!!

[/ QUOTE ]

from others who don't understand the game or what it takes to be an entrepreneur...if you don't perceive me as having the credibility to make that assessment then take it with a grain of salt. the context in which i wrote that line is that my family is very conservative, christian, puritan work ethic, working for the man and paying taxes is the only good way to leads ones life. running a business at a young age and gambling for a living is seen as poor form in these circles, especially after having spent a great deal of time and money getting pedigreed to work for somebody else. but yes, if i was wrong, and you are meant for this life, then that applies to you as well.
