Turned 49 today. National director at a cancer charity (LLS). '98 w/50K. Before: '66 911. My first car was a '63 356B. Sold it to stay in school. Biggest mistake I ever made. Boxster eases the pain nicely.

I thought I had already read and posted in this. Now I see why... Here's the other thread:
http://986forum.com/forums/general-discussions/49432-what-your-job-11.html
It fills in a bit of the hiatus this thread took.

Prostitute tester?, when I first read it I thought it was prostate tester, in both cases sounds like a fun job, lol

Now I manage our gulf front vacation properties....ie. I clean toilets (just like my first job at 15!).

Retirement does not suck.
