Merry Christmas from The GoldFather

Post by tonyespo »

Hi everyone, It's been awhile but I just wanted to stop by and wish everyone a Merry Christmas at SMF.

I'm alive and well and enjoying RED NECK retirement in N.C.

Have a Merry Christmas Y'all!

Good to hear from you Tony and that all is going well. I retired several years ago and have never regretted it; I can honestly say that I've not once woken up in the morning and said to myself that I miss the office, but I wasn't selling Porches. Also, I'm glad to see that you are wishing us Merry Christmas as opposed to the insipid Happy Holidays or Seasons Greetings.

Merry Christmas Tony -- nice to hear from you at this time of the year. Glad all is well with you .... I am still a good decade away from retirement, and while I love my work, and find great satisfaction in it -- it is still in the end a job, and I look forward to the day when I can spend all my time directed at activities of my own choosing.

It's good to see you check in now and then!

Tony, thank you for thinking of us. We miss you around here, and especially some of the pictures you used to share with us, and yes, the cars were nice too. :) I hope all agrees with you and I hope that you have a great Christmas and a great New Year.
