I still have those dreams and am pursuing them, aggressively. No, I haven't been a millionaire, but this business has bought me many beautiful watches, clothes, food and endless toys for my kids, several cars and motorcycles and a bunch of worthless crap.

However, even those small victories are much larger than most could afford, where I grew up. Many are still in the same rutt they've been in since childhood. They look at me like, "He made it", when in the grand scheme, I really haven't 'made it' at all.

Sorry for the rant. Great post, BTW.
