My last motorcycle.

What's one of the most dangerous thrill seeking things you've done?

Walking out of my job in July 2000, with no replacement job to walk into and no intention of seeking any other employment.

Do you (or did you) enjoy your working life?

Objectively, no. Even if I should, that just doesn't happen.

And it'll probably won't happen.
My working life consists of playing by all my weaknesses and almost none of my strengths. Of course I don't!.. :x

I don't hate my job though.
But everything is resisting -- because it's a tightrope between the learning zone and the danger zone by itself.

I don't enjoy it because that's not the point.
I just enjoy it less because it doesn't expand me fast enough and I'm not patient and unfortunately not consistent and I'm sick of it.


Same question.

Of course there were good moments and moments where I felt extremely proud of my accomplishments.

Overall, no. It was hell on Earth, especially working 40-70 hours a week, commuting an hour or two each way, and being a single working mum from the time my daughter was six months old.

Then add in my undiagnosed ASD / ADHD and the sexual predation of my boss.

It was not a hoot.

I enjoyed most of my working life from about 1983-1995, that's it.

Would you like to run your own business?

Not at all. I'm useless about commerce.

I hate the idea and it's principles already.
I could only imagine to having to do it.
I likely don't.
And yet I wouldn't know if I'd be good at it or not. Too many gaps to grasp.



Same question.

Possibly - I like the idea of buying and selling, stuff like collectable coins and stamps, but I wouldn't want to have direct contact with the vendors or buyers (ie in person or over the phone), so it would have to be online.

Do you leave your house or flat every day or most days?

Yes.
More so if the weather's good enough and if I'm also not broke or saving...


Same question.

Yes, but more often these days it's to go to work or go shopping. I don't go out for recreation purposes nearly as much as I used to.

I almost always go out to the supermarket, and sometimes to nearby towns and cities on the bus or tram.

Do you manage to save or invest some money every month or most months?

I haven't managed to save a dollar in my life.

I have some investments, though.

Not really sure because I seldom check my bank accounts but I get a feeling my bank balance isn't going down.

Do you like limes (fruit)?
