what are some of your hobbies? I’m realizing I put so much time into work that I haven’t really developed any since college so am curious what others enjoy doing in free time

Horseback riding. I try to go once a week. Really great stress relief.

I love the outdoors. Hiking, fishing, hunting, camping.
On a daily basis I keep tropical fish. Very calming. I have 5 tanks all set up for different types of fish.

I don't keep them, because then I'd have to clean them, and my daughters aren't cool with that. As long as they love fishing I'll keep thinking them back.

ADVISOR FUEL - BEWARE OF THEM

I've an extremely unpleasant experience with this company. We sent them a legal notice and my lawyer even lodged a compliant with the Florida Attorney General but in vein. These people don't bother about legal notices as they know most advisors don't have time and wherewithal to go to litigation.

Due to limitation of space I can't write in detail, but please contact me if you like to know my entire experience with ADVISOR FUEL. Don't fall prey to their tactics.
