Wish I could say the same for my bank account. Look at what I am driving after nearly 4 decades as a physician


It's a nice car and is sure clean I'm sure you don't judge the people you meet by the kind of car they drive or how much they make. Don't do it to yourself either. You deserve higher self-esteem after four decades of service to others. I admire you

More power to him. To each his/her own. As for me, I would rather be lying under the grass, pushing up daisies, than standing on top of it hitting little balls with a big stick


So sorry to hear that you feel that way. Please accept my sincere wish that you acquire a better outlook on being alive and..."be careful what you wish for".

Just joking around on that one. Just making a point how golf has no appeal for me

Very nice. Mine was usually at a mooring, and I paddled out in an inflatable.


If you could have bottled all of the hot air in the UHH attic, you never would have broken a sweat pumping that inflatable boat up

Got it! I'm no fan of golf either but if the choice is golf or death, I'll take golf.

Maybe that statement should be qualified a bit. If I see someone driving a nice, fancy car while his kids are wearing shoes with holes in them, I would say he is a selfish prick. If he is driving a 20 year old rust bucket so that his kids can afford to go to college without taking out a massive loan, I would say the opposite. As for what doctors drive, people tend to make judgements. To many, a "doctor's" car is an entry to mid level luxury model A doctor driving by in a Bentley or Ferrari might have people thinking that he is only in it for the money. Were the same doctor to be behind the wheel of a Hyundai like mine, people might think he is incompetent. Once in New Jersey, I was pulled over in my Hyundai by a cop to see if the MD plates were stolen. He could not believe a physician would be driving such a P.O.S. car

Yes people do make judgements. If you see someone driving a nice car, how would you know his kids are wearing shoes with holes in them???

Way too negative! I'm older than you and I still think positive about life. Sure things don't all work the same, but I bring more wisdom to the game!!

Enjoy your youth. I turned 85 last month and still feel 25 every day of my life. There are some heavy things I cannot do and it makes me sad (or mad sometimes) but enjoy everything while you can.

Wish I was coming up on just 68 - I’m fixin’ to turn 80. I’d love to only be 68! I was still building our cabin at that age and in really decent condition after summers of toting wood up the hill, up the stairs, up ladders, etc.

God bless Iso. I hope you live to be 110 and the last words you hear are mine.
