Almost through my 40’s and I’ve:

• Had three decent careers that each abruptly laid me off without warning.
• Had a home and lost it.
• Had a car and lost it.
• Had parents and siblings and lost them
• Had health and lost it.
• Had good credit and lost it.
• Had tens of thousands in savings and spent it on family members with cancer. (They died anyway.)
• Had a drinking problem and lost it, so hey score one!
