Thanks. I've spent much of my life getting unplugged from the matrix. It's one of my strengths. Still trying to plug into the "how one makes money" mental framework. I did the homemaker thing for a long time and now have a day job. I actually was good at recognizing opportunities to make money as a kid and always had money as a kid. Then I got married and was basically treated like chattel property. Still trying to recover psychologically from that, if that makes any sense.

Really enjoyed this last point. Thanks for adding it. It gives me hope. I have spent a lot of time solving very large personal issues and this seems to convince other people I'm not really competent because of the financial issues left in the wake of that. I find that highly annoying when it comes from other people but I'm human so I still wrestle at times with wondering if I really am some lame, incompetent dolt. So this was nice to read.

Take care.
