I am talking non work related...not getting married, or anything that involves anyone but you.

Right now, mine is simple....dropping a bunch of weight so I feel better health wise and energy wise.


Nothing earth shattering like beating cancer, but I will take it lol

Mine all involve someone else be it coaching or parenting....so mine I guess is just having a 4.0 while earning my master's degree.....either that or graduating college owing no money due to 40-50 hour work weeks while going full-time to college, with a kid.

I was doing around $5k ($3k profit), but fees just started getting ridiculous, so I bowed out as well.

When the switched the rules up like 5 years ago it killed it for me as well. It went from like Powersellers list free and give 1-4% to close to 10%. It was dumb.

Teaching a one-armed teacher I hooked up with, how to hack an Ohio sports site and run a script on it. Afterwards, we watched an epic Celtics collapse.

Perfect score on the Math portion of the SAT is the only thing that's coming to mind.
