Less than 6 months until I turn 50 years old. The big five-oh. Midlife crisis, here I come. I’m only half joking about the midlife crisis. But as I approach 50 I have been reflecting on life and what the future holds.

The CliffsNotes version of my life,

  • Graduated high school top off my class and got a full scholarship to an elite university.
  • Wasted years at college drinking and partying, barely earning a diploma.
  • Lucky for me, job market was good for new grads and joined the tech industry.
  • Was making good money so naturally blew it on partying and fast cars.
  • 30 and life felt a bit meh, so took a sabbatical to backpack through Europe.
  • Got the travel bug after Europe so started traveling and jet setting around the world.
  • Developed a passion for photography. Developed an obsession with golf.
  • Was making good money so naturally blew it on partying and even faster cars.
  • 40 was approaching and life felt a bit meh, so I got a puppy.
  • A failed business, so took a sabbatical to do #vanlife
  • Pandemic
  • 50 was approaching and life felt a bit meh, so I started this blog.
