Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Ferrari Digest, Vol 181, Issue 28

Peter,

Really well stated.  While I'm certainly not in the same economic strata, as a lowly BS-degreed guy working well outside my degree's swimlane (business college but working as a support contractor for a US Navy T&E group), I also feel pretty privileged.  While I *could​* buy another Ferrari (I'm the former owner of the ex-Joe Martz/ex-Steve Cook '77 308 GTB), I'm extremely content with the Jags my Dad has gifted to me.  And - believe it or not - the '67 Beetle I just added to the garage (I like to call it "the anti-Jag"!).

And also like you, of my closest friends, the "newest" is the list's own Matt Boyd, whom I've known now for almost a quarter century - the rest longer, with a childhood friend going back 50 year.  No, it's not a competition, Peter, I'm just old.  Hahahaha!!

I've also learned so much here.  Now if only someone could teach me how to make all that I've learned actually *STAY​* In my brain!  🙂

Every day Anthony.

I?ve got two Ferraris in the garage, money in the bank, I picked the right career for my skillsets that has brought me this prosperity - which can last into a comfortable retirement - and I live in a place that truly feels like home. I?m blessed to have a great family and a group of close-knit friends, that a few of them have lasted almost a lifetime (three of which I?ve known since kindergarten and that makes 40 years).

I?m also amazed and humbled to be amongst you folks. An actual group of rocket scientists!
