I recently went to an award dinner for someone very deserving and has had a very successful career and will be retiring soon. It seems like they've been able to do a lot of good and useful things during their time and I'm happy for them. It got me thinking about my career and some things I think I have overvalued and undervalued. What about you... when you're close to retirement what do you want to look back on and be proud of?
