I need to be able to pick more than one answer!

That would be other.

Do you want that fixed, or do you like the charm of the current version?

My reason for not pursuing, is pursing, so to speak.

It's about money.

What I would like to do, I would only be able to do comfortably if I had enough of a financial safety net in place to allow me to focus on the work, rather than the marketing.

Fine...other it is...

Fixed would be good -- I didn't catch it until it was too late. (thank you!)

I left the poll as only permitting one selection because, based on my experiences, there would be a general desire to select almost all of them. I also think that most of the restrictions we perceive are generally illusions placed on us by society, culture, and ourselves.

Oh... that and I'm not a young Asian girl... that too.

Viola.

I don't know what my dream is. I used to know---then, it flew off and i can't recall it...

time and money.....time and money.... and family time, and home maitenance, and .....

Don't take this the wrong way UT, but you think too small. To wit:

If you owe the bank $100,000. and you can't pay them, *you* have a problem.

If you owe the bank$100,000,000. and you can't pay them, the *bank* has a problem.

As for me, I am pursuing my dream in a methodical, plodding, elephant eating fashion. That is, one bite at a time.

I've always preffered being slightly cash poor but wealthy in personal satisfaction to the reverse. Having been self employed for so long has made me less averse to uncertainty than the average bear. It has also made goals materialize more slowly than if I just went to the bank and borrowed lots of cash and then spent the next 30 years paying it all off.

I know a lot of people who have a colossal monthly nut the crack just to make their minimum payments. Their dreams seem more nightmarish to me.

If you owe a family member $100,000, everybody has a problem.

Not according to Ayn Rand, motherf*cker. And, she's packing.

I guess my dream is...... to have dreams again. But I am basically doing what I want to do. If I were rich I could do it better.

You just need to have that family member start a bank, then make you CEO...


Wait, that plot sounds familial.
-ar. Familiar.
