Dad tired of working to hard

[Ericpoe2008]

<div class="bbWrapper">Hi everyone my name is Eric. I just had my second child and was going about my slow lane life until my wife introduced me to audible for my hour commute. Three months and 10 books later I have come to understand that I knew nothing about anything financial. I was ok working hard getting up at 4 to go to work and going to bed at 11 at night. New financial burden work harder. no more. I realize I need to work hard but also smart. I am 3/4 of the way through Unscripted and hungry for more. I look forward to being apart of this forum. I plan on being active because I&#039;m tired of this way of not living and missing my children growing up while at work.<br /> <br /> Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk</div>
