Welcome aboard, Jim. Plan to "run in such a way that you might win." 1 Corinthians 9:24

I often reference to how much less I know each day since going into the studio full time in 2000. Wish I wrote it all down back when I knew everything...

Another quote that always seems relevant is "wow, we thought we were broke last month/year." If you (and your wife/family?) can learn to live on what you make, no matter what, on your own, it can be a happy way to live. There's comfort in knowing you won't get paid this week versus whether your regular paycheck will bounce again or will simply be another lay-off notice.

As always, tough times make good times even better and make good relationships even stronger. Good luck and Keep us posted.
