luck and hard work has brought me to a better financial situation than i was 10 years ago. why? i think that taking risk and getting out of comfort zone was key. when i graduated from college i honestly thought i would have very little value add to any company. but i tried to contribute in whatever way i knew best. and so far so good, knock on wood.

In a way, yes. I have more money now and a job and almost a college degree, but also no because I don't have that childlike innocence when the world was good and the only bad thing was getting grounded or having to do a worksheet for homework not losing friends because of stupid things or having your heart break because your boyfriend of 4.5 cheated on you. I really wish I had that innocence back...

I'm definitely better off now then I was 10 years ago. I didn't know what responsibility was and I got head over heels in debt which ruined my credit. I was working and really had nothing to show for all my hard work. I've just grown up alot. I now have 3 kids and a husband, a place to live, I'm responsible with my money and not in debt and I've gone back to school to make an even better live for myself and my family.
