Been in a crappy mood for the last week or so and I feel like everything's starting to boil over tonight. Ugh.

I kind of gauged that here lately. Dont let it; as tempting as it may be. Irs, accidental copy right infringment suit suing me for 7 figures and the recent murder of my good friends mom (which by the way despite mentioning multiple times on here not 1 person has responded) just to name a few. In the last 2 years both of my retail locations have been broken into resulting in the loss of over 30K dollars. One of my own employees was arrested for felony theft to the tune of 10K dollars. And to top it off my business partner screwed me on some antique german gold coins to the tune of 15K. My father passed in 2004 at the age of 42. I found out in 2010 that my uncle/his brother had performed a change of address after his death and had cashed 20K worth of his commission checks posthumously. The list can go on and on Kevin. I can document anything if you doubt it.

You know the sad thing? Some people would laugh at my circumstances in the face of theirs. I am by no means trying to downplay your situation. But no matter what your going through it could be worse. Just know you have a great bunch of guys and gals who have your back.

The troll on c7 is unnerving me though:nono:



Disregard my sp. Im too tired to give sh1t.

'Tis the life we all live haha. Always have to take the positive though, attitude is everything. I mean hey I'm living in a hotel room until summer spending more months alone away from family. But hey I get to do some awesome shit along the way but does it suck of course it does. Life either sucks, is alright, or is awesome, it's all about attitude and perspective.

Sorry for all you all go through but hey it's never as bad as it all seems.

My problems definitely aren't as big as yours, it's just little things that are starting to all add up into one big volcano of self-pity, frustration, and misery.

Sounds like you need a good dog. Sorry about your friend's mom's murder. Violent crime can be very difficult to deal with. Causes a lot of second guessing...

With all that fraud being committed around you maybe you should hire a good PA who could watch ya back for ya.

When you first mentioned it, It's kind of hard to accept that would happen to anyone you know, even if it's on a forum. I couldn't even fathom that kind of experience (nor would I want to). Death is a hard thing to accept at times and we all react a little differently to it I suppose.

I am truly sorry for your friend and the void that will be left now that she is gone. You seem to be a person that has a strong will towards perseverance as you relate your life experiences to us here. Hopefully your friend is as well, if not, then maybe you will act as a guiding light for him. My thoughts and prayers go out to your friend and his family that they have the strength to continue on with their lives in the way their mother would want them to. :pray2:

Hang in there Ken & Kev... we all go thru crap or sad times. This C7 forum is a small but nice way to relieve stress or even for a brief moment forget about the big issues that hover around each and every one of us. Stay strong!

Ill get more livid sometimes over a fast food joint screwing up my order than a theft from one of my stores. Trust me...little doesnt mean easy to deal with.

Your not joking I've had to pull my firearm 3 times since opening my 1st store. Thank God I didn't have to pull a trigger.

I guess that is awkward. Saddest thing? We ALL know her husband of 18 years did it. I pray the GBI charges someone before the case goes cold. In this county once cold...never solved. Around 30 unsolved murders population 13k people?
It's ridiculous.

You are a good man:sad:


Wow. Thanks for all the kind words. I almost feel guilty for telling you guys:sad:

Only family I have is my mom and I don't have many friends due to the nature of my business. This is where I vent and cut up. This place has made me smile on days I felt like balling.

I can't imagine a kinder bunch of people like I've encountered on here. Sorry kev didn't mean to try and take away from your troubles. Troubles whether big or small cant defeat me. I believe a man defeated those 2000 years ago.

At the end of the day we all lucky as hell; blessed beyond reason and fortunate enough to bitch about the small stuff; knowing that at the end of your worse day some person has it worse.

My heart hurts for that person not myself.


Enough goobly gobbly mushy stuff.


Once again thank yall.

:rockon:

I missed your post. Attitude and perspective. You are 100% correct. I couldn't imagine having to do that with a family. Godspeed in every way.

No worries, it's awesome to do these things, but it can be a grind being married and spending more time away than actually with them But hey it leads to awesome stories and I get to just study and workout all the time, and there's some other guys and gals that have had it way worse. Either way I have a sweet job and that always trumps it, I have people around me all the time stressing and can't believe how I stay so calm and relaxed, it's as simple as taking a step back and looking at what you actually get to do with your life and looking at how many people are forced down roads in their life that they hate but do nonetheless. And besides less money spent by being away means faster Corvette fund!

Wow that post went on
