Greetings...
Big news on two fronts that bring me great joy.
1. Professional. So I decided this last year that I just don't have the "passion" to be a self-employed person. All the respect in the world to the people that do that, but I just don't have a burning desire and I think you need that to go that route. So I will humbly stay a Pharma Bro, and do my thing for Big Pharma until Big Pharma tells me to go away.
Which means, my hobby, from this point until the end of my time, is investing. I will invest in Stocks, Real Estate, Coins, and Entertainment. I will go after Moonshots, as Google calls them. A little side note to remind me: a $100 invested in Bitcoin in 2010 is worth $MM today. This decisions has been very liberating for me. I felt like somewhat of a failure for not wanting to start my own empire, but now I can dabble in lots of little things. See what strikes my fancy.
2. Personal. THE POOL!!! The watermark for success for me has always been a backyard pool. I finally have the money, the house, and the yard to put it in. I have bids in hand, and I am working on getting the necessary approvals. If the Water Gods align the stars, I could be taking meetings armpit deep in my backyard by this summer.
Well... that is it for now. Back soon.

I had a little light bulb moment last night. I have them often this time of year (see other sites/blogs that I have tried). This one was really simple though.
I have spent the last few years, trying to get myself into hobbies or trying to find something that inspires me. I often dive in at first, but then the buzz wears off and I just let it bail.
Last night, I had another good idea. It was really the culmination of a weekend spent watching football (side bar... terrible games) and researching investment ideas. So here it is: "Why, am I doing anything other than trying to make more money?".
So... the Ambition-Fund is born. I know... the name is cheesy, but I need something I could self-market and that was it and Vision Fund was taken.
So here is the goal. Get to $1,000,000
I currently sit at a cumulative $200K. I check my money daily, often twice a day. Why am I even trying to do anything else with my free time.
I bought up the website name and started the blog. Now to find some ways to make some cash.
Wish me luck...

Jan 9
Finally starting to feel normal...
The work day is feeling normal. Waking up is feeling normal. Morning exercise is feeling normal. I sort of remember what I was working on.
I have two short weeks remaining in January and then a week of vacation.
Then a short sprint to bonus season at the end of Feb. Bonus season always resets the year for me and gives me a new goal to start working towards.
