How would you like to be living five years from now, realistically?

without the nightmares

with some amount of inner peace

I'd *like* to be in a position to work through the winter and live on the boat through the summer but it's not going to happen

hopefully working for ourselves, we're putting things in motion as we speak...:-6

I would like be living back home and not here.

I would love to have my family and myself back to good health :-6

I would like to be with that special someone and be happy in myself:D

As some young, lithe, nubile, rich, and long-legged woman's pool boy.

What would you have to do to make it happen?

That's positive-----------I wish you well.

Oiy 5 years eh

Ok with luck maybe happily remaired, and still at my job a little longer but with less financial worry.

A second grandchild and a happy comfortable set of parents running their dream company

And a stellar successful career under way with Jr Minks.

Where's home?---------------Make it happen.

Some things can happen, some cannot Lon. I have kept my home there, for the day I can return. It is not in my hands alone, it hinges on my husband's health and when/if he will be able to fly. Otherwise, there is no way to transport him the distance, I am here far from home.

Somethings are in the hands of God alone.

I wish for your husband's health to improve and what you want to be realized.

Change my line of business and learn how to come across at an interview

Your profile shows you to be a Computer Consultant. What would be a reasonable line of business to switch to, maybe retrain, additional schooling etc.? What's your problem with the inteview. PM me if you like.

Let's see in 5 years....I hope to be financially stable and not living on the streets.

My youngest child will be 16 years old and my oldest will be 23...I hope NOT to be a grandma at the age 45 but it could happen.

I would really like to be re-married...and that I don't have major health issues.

Given the second the first would not be a problem - go back to being a contractor and pick my contracts, no problem.

I have never come over well in an interview situation - not outgoing enough, especially with people I don't know. It would be so much worse now having not attended an interview in nearly twenty five years. From going contract I picked up all my work by word of mouth - people heard my contract was coming to an end and 'phoned me to offer me another, but with my last contract lasting almost eighteen years I fell off the radar.

Lon, why do I feel like your waiting for someone to say, I want to be financially secure, retired and able to travel?



Oh by the way, Of course that is what I would want in 5 years.

I feel like Lon is the Wizard of Oz....granting wishes!!:wah:



I mean no harm Lon, this is a good thread....just adding my comment...thank you for your well wishes, very appreciated!:)

Wrong---I'm not waiting for anyone to say that. It takes longer than five years to be financially secure, retired and able to retire. It was not some kind of trick or devious question.

Lon;657588 wrote: Oh---------are you one of them?




No. I had my head so far up my ass during that period its unfathomable I didnt suffocate.

One of my demons was posessing me.

Clearing your debts, living somewhere you love, having enough scratch left at the end of the month to travel and follow where your ideas take you are good and realistic goals.

What do you need to do to bring this about?

Pinky;657623 wrote: Just to sit tight, pay off as much as I can every month until it's gone!


Will debt be gone in five years if you sit tight and pay off as much as you can?

In five years time, hmmm....................



I would hubby to have been able to have retired as is our plan, I would like to not have to work unless I really want to.



I would like our house to have all the work done to it that it needs!



I would like my daughter to be continuing her education (if she wants to) and be having some fun too.



I would like to see my step-daughters settled in relationships with good men (instead of the d1ckheads they normally choose)



I would like more grandchildren



I would like to take more time to travel



Most of all I would like to be just a bit healthier to allow me to enjoy life just a little more.





Good thread Lon x

I hope it all comes to pass.

We sell the house in January 2010 & head to New Zealand for a year, if we like it & can stay longer - we will.

Thats the 5 year plan at the moment.

Look me up in Christchurch when you are there. It will be warm in January and I will have been there since November from California.

Got yourself a deal there Lon :-4

From here it was down for most of the evening and when it returned the clock was unset so it wouldn't allow searches
