Cause and affect.

In life there are cause and effect in our lives. This is something that has an effect now, but what I'm talking about is affect". This affect you in the future. What you do today has an impact on your future. You rob a bank or commit a crime, it would hurt you. But check this out! There was a man from Pawtucket", did what the hell he want, and say "Fuck it'! Just kidding.

But there was a man I knew, who had lots of from different women. He avoid paying support but having jobs that paid cash. For when he did his taxes, they took it for his support. He had a few skills, and for many decades he had jobs that paid him cash, and for many years he never had to pay taxes.

So one day the unexpected happened, he got old and could get work. so when he got social security age, there was no money in the pot. You got to work 10 years, or 40 quarters so that they can take out for FICA, so you can get social security. Poor guy, he didn't think about the future.

I was in the Air Force, for 4 years active and later, many years in the National guard. My last year was in 2003. I was told to reenlist. 7 more years in the guard I could get a check when I'm 60 for the rest of my life. I got out, and 15 years later, I realized I miss out on the prize. For 60 is not too far away.

I always wanted a degree, in 2001,I got and associates. I work for a company that with a bachelors, you can be a manager. A bachelor and a "C' average. now you got to have a masters and "B" average. I still doing a hard labor, back breaking job, too much for an old man like me. But for me not finishing the race, in the military, but getting the 7 years, or going for my bachelors, my choices in life "Affect" my future!

Quotes" if you can Affect the world around you, you can Affect the world itself.

The moment you take responsibly for everything in your life, is the moment you can change anything in your life.

Little things Affect little minds.

That's so true my friend if you don't work enough quarters or get enough work credits you get zilch. I don't think I have made enough in my lifetime to get it. That's why it's so important when your married the ladies can get their husbands. As there are many stay at home moms and they deserve retirement too.

You know my kids dad did something simpler to that, he quit every job child support would find. It's so sad I don't understand why some parents do that, there are some moms like that too.

I hope you are enjoying a great weekend..

Seduce the mind and see what a wonderful adventure the body will take you on..

Hi my friend, some people don't want to work, or just selfish and don't care about their family. Many Deadbeats! Thanks for viewing and your feedback.
