MY STORY
I started blogging and tweeting about my interests in marketing and small business about 5 years ago. I wanted my son to become interested in my hobbies but that did not materialize. More recently, I have become more interested in sharing my experience with a wider audience and helping the readers make better decisions with the choices that we face every day. I am a 60 year old administrator and was a Professor in a Business School for 11 years before I changed my career. My research and teaching interests were on business decision making. I think I have made good decisions in my life and helped more than 1,000 students do well in their lives.
I have been happily married for 35 years, have a son, and a comfortable life. In 1984, when I arrived in the USA, I had $500 in my pocket. Our story - an American immigrant's story - has many lessons for others - to my son included. Also, one day, I might get dementia, Alzheimer’s and other health issues and in turn, forget these most pleasant memories. I hope by reading and writing blogs, I can slow the onset of dementia. More importantly, when I am no longer there with him, I hope these blogs will have some value for my son to understand his parents and the choices that they made.
Finally, I want to have a purposeful life even after retirement. I believe one way to have a purposeful life after retirement is to share your life experiences.
