LUCK.
Sometimes defined as unforeseen beneficial events.
I fully realize that I WAS lucky.
The Ohio State Vocational counselor I had didn't want to waste resources
on a 48 year old guy who had been all busted up.
But I wouldn't let up and got my breaks.
Of course I worked my tush off also.
When...
@Shadow Wolf
You sure make a lot of sense.
If the U.A.W. laborer didn't make about $30 bucks an hour I would
NOT have made about $36 bucks an hour.
I wouldn't have a modest monthly income nor a modest investment

Now THAT makes perfect sense!
BAN GUNS! Oh, that don't work none too good now does it?
Oh, I GOT IT!
BAN BULLETS!
That's it; ban the stinkin' bullets. It ain't the gun what kills ya it's the HOLE!

Karl Marx beat you silly on this topic back in 1848 or so.

Superior military leadership, superior will to fight and win born of
necessity. And of course the best of the best weapons and EVERY
Jew is armed to the teeth even at home. Especially at home.

The Company could do little against the U.A.W. as the Union Ruled.
Soooooooooooooo, they found out they could hire kids right out of
college to be supervisors with minimal training...
Awwwwwwwwwww geeeeeeeeeeee.
Sooner or later someone(s) are gonna start shooting again!

I don't have a dog in that fight but I hate it there will be more bloodshed.
I'm retired so taxes aren't a problem now.
When I worked at G.M. taxes were oppressive!
Years ago I recall working a holiday shutdown and in one week
make $7,000 bucks.
Took home $3,200. HUH?
Over half of it was taken away.
I never did that again!
I could have sat around and whined and pee'd in my beer but
I CHOSE not to.
It was a choice to make the best of a bad situation.
I didn't "know" that I could go to school until I LOOKED into it.
At age 48 there must be something I could do.
Even the Ohio Rehabilitation guy tried to talk me out...
Depends upon who "most people" are.
I'm referencing State schools, not private, thus expensive, universities.
When I was in college not all that long ago most of the non
trad students were single mothers, people of color, and those with
physical disabilities.
That was Kent State of Ohio.
Later I...
Ya do if ya knows how!
I got my first degree with social assistance since I was 100% disabled.
I got my 2nd on General Motors who hired me due to my 1st degree.
If ya wanna yer a gonna.
I was FORTY-EIGHT years old when I started college, 53 when I graduated
