He wanted to be the CEO of his own company by the age of 30. But then he got 'sidetracked' and decided to become a pastor and start a family. I, on the other hand, thought that I wanted nothing more than to settle down and become a stay at home mom. But when I graduated from college, I was kind of bored and restless. So, I wound up going to law school. And now I'm the one with tons of earning potential. But as I mentioned in another post, I'm in the process of transitioning out of law. So who knows where my brother and I will be 10 years from now?IRAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01088005060867682838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23739424.post-1145458988750554982006-04-19T10:03:00.000-05:002006-04-19T10:03:00.000-05:00very interesting post.

That's what you call sacrifice.IRAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01088005060867682838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23739424.post-1144964129111547662006-04-13T16:35:00.000-05:002006-04-13T16:35:00.000-05:00I think girls are more likely to directly care for...I think girls are more likely to directly care for aged parents than boys are, i.e. wipe poop and take you to the hospital. Yet another reason to prefer a girl over a boy.<BR/><BR/>But if only you could skip the teen years for both of them.mapgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141234159609900257noreply@blogger.com
