Really I am looking to do a journal and talk about what is going on in my life. Several years ago, starting in about 2018 I lost all my savings in trying to be a Realtor and then the shut down in 2020. It seemed really slow at first and then suddenly overnight. Prior to the shut down it seems as if so many companies motto was Vision 20/20.
In trying to build back I thought if I am ever going to have a million dollars, I am going to first have to have a million pennies. I thought this would help me start developing a mindset set on millions. Instead of adding 30 dollars to my savings, I am no adding 3000 pennies. If I am se a dime in the street it is not a dime but another 10 pennies. As I found ways to save money or get debts paid off, I was now adding thousands of pennies to my savings account.
While I had challenges with my savings in that every time I save some an emergence would come along and knock it right back down. Fortunately I was having to use debt to get out of these emergencies, but I did not seem to be making the progress that I wanted wo I started saving a portion to put i a stock account. This is not the way the Dave Ramsey would suggest (and I will be honest his is the correct way) and yet I was committed to this approach. All stocks I own pay dividends to reinvest or put in saving and again started adding hundreds and thousands of pennies. To this point I have built up accounts equaling $10,000.00 (1 million pennies) and have changed my mind set of building up to 1,000,000 Nichols ( $50,000) Sure it 5 times as much, but I already have a base of 20% or 20,000 Nichols and tips 20,000 Nichols are adding passive income.
I do want to talk some about some of my finances and stock investment though by no means am I any kind of professional or expert and to do what I am doing is to do so at your own risk. Since then I have developed colon rectal cancer that I am fighting. I have gone through my first 12 cancer treatment and 25 radiation chemo treatments. A the moment they cannot find any cancer though they feel strongly that it will come back with a vengeance.
So I want to share what it was like to go through the treatment and the upcoming scans. I also will share why I have so much hope in this time. so to share all this and other things that are going on in my life, I reads a lot of books that cover may topics including Theology, Literature, American History, Church and Presbyterian History. Reformation History, Princeton Seminary History, and I would like to start picking up volumes on the French Reformation especially the Saint Bartholomew Day’s Massacre. I also enjoy not only watching Baseball but reading about it as well. While I enjoy fly fishing here lately I have been reading about fishing. While I have never been a big drinker, the Chemo and my kidneys have taken me to a non drinker, but I enjoy reading on those subjects as well.
I realize there may be very little interest in my blog, and that is Ok. alot of it is for me to be able to go back and see what I was thinking on certain days and about certain subjects. It may also give those who are related to me a chance to see what I was thinking and going on if I am no longe able to tell them.
