 I can’t wait for people to call me lucky, especially the ones who were ignorant. nostr:note1832fprawp4yve9hjeqj7yv3e3uta83753krpd40vy9n2eycmuz8sj0zf9d 
 generally in the 55 years i've been around, "you're lucky" is generally code for "you worked hard and i can't admit that i don't/won't and i'm jealous." 🤣🤷‍♂️😇 
 My response to those:  "For me it was more curiosity, common sense, personal responsibility, and patience than luck...but sure, I guess you were just unlucky" 😏

 That’ll make em’ take a seat and think, or will it? 🤔
