Default Decided to post.

I've been taking advantage of the knowledge on this website (esspecially the podcasts) for about 2 months now; but have yet to join the community. Lately, I've been trying to indulge into personal development and general business, to become a better person - mentally and financially! It's great to be here and thank you Steve for all the information I continue to find here. I decided today that I wanted to introduce myself and hopefully meet some great people.. so, Hello!

Hi Carl,
Welcome!
If this forum does nothing else for you it will challenge you to define your beliefs more clearly - a very good thing.

Looking forward to reading about your views and ideas.
p.s. You're very brave to post a picture and info on yourself.

You never said I was brave... that is discrimination...

That is funny... because the real Shamou was my Bulldog... and I'd be walking down the street with him and people would say, "Here comes Shamou" ...never knowing who "I" was.

Not easy to be second banana to a Bulldog...

Shamou, I think you're missing your calling. You should be preparing your stand-up act. You make me laugh!!!

As per subjective reality, I've decided that Carl doesn't exist. (Sorry Carl, I really don't mean that! I hope you've read Steve's blog.)

LOL I can tell I am going to enjoy my stay here. I was shocked when I saw my welcome thread had 15 replies, and laughed when it was basically a conversation. Thanks all for the replies!

No old money in the family, just a name passed on and kept up by my father! Carl Harry Carlson IV to be exact! I don't see how posting a picture is brave, but I'll take the compliment.

I guess you can't actually prove I exist because I could just be someone posing as Carl Carlson... so you will just have to take my word on it. (Unless you want to come identify me for yourself to prove I exist in your reality )
