I was in the restaurant business for many years. My first job (when I was about 12 ) was sweeping and cleaning the parking lot for a drive in hot dog stand like you see in the movies about the 50’s and 60’s.

While in college two friends and I started a bar. It was only opened on the weekends and it was always packed till we were forced to close. After college I went to work in the corporate world,but only lasted for a year or two. I couldn’t take being in an office with no windows all day long. At the time I was bartending on the weekends and went full time. Worked for the same company for over twenty years and worked my way up to being the working partner. I opened up restaurants in Connecticut, Massachusetts,and Florida.

In 1990 I met the girl of my life. After trying to work our schedules, her being a professional 9-5 worker ( lawyer ) and mine being all hours worker I left the restaurant business. For the next seven years I sold insurance and mortgages.

Then about the year 2000 she was having major problems with her back and legs and decided on surgery. She never drove a car after that or even like riding in one. She needed me to drive her around and to do all the errands ( even buy her clothes ). Since her job was better than mine we decided that I would be the stay at home dad (we have two dogs ) and she would be the bread earner.

That is when I became interested in the Internet.At first just fooling around with it some and then decided to really give it a go. Just when things were beginning to happen one of the dogs became really sick. His liver and panaceas were in bad shape and he was now a diabetic.

After months of constant attention and vet visits he went blind. We were going to have eye surgery for him but his liver wasn’t in shape for it. This is when I was going to get back into the Internet World. Just when I started up again I had an injury to my eye and couldn’t use the computer for a few months. So finally time came around again to get back to the Internet. This time just as I was starting the girl of my life suddenly passed away, this really set me back.

Now having gotten my feet somewhat back on ground I am going again. With the help of friends that I met on the Internet, thing are happening. While there are many friends that have helped me there is one person that has helped me the most. She is Shannon Shubert of Immac Marketing 0 Group. Without her I would be light years behind…
