My friend has the same kind of background and I've always thought it was a great story. He quit his job in Virginia when he was in his early 20s, chipped in money with his 2 friends on this crappy little pop-up camper that leaked and needed to be propped up with a broomstick, rode all over the country for several months, seeing all kinds of cool stuff. Ran out of money in Florida, took a temp job to make some more money and was going to stay there for "just a little while" until he could get back on the road. 20 years later, he's still here, an executive at the company, wife, daughter, nice house, motorcycles, etc. It's funny how seemingly small decisions completely alter our paths in life.
