  • Excellent post Eugene. Thanks for taking the time to ask these YBPs about their lifestyles.

We have all done quite well in life, Zack is an executive director of a major government union, Art, is a New York City Dectetive, Larry, is still in Vermont and runs manufacturing for a top corporation, I am a retired VP for 3 major corporations and now own a executive recruitment firm. They are brothers to me and we are all proud of each other. Make the best of your situation and you can move on later to a more metro area or you may decide to stay. One of my roommates from baltimore never left.
