Check this out. On our local news, they did a story about an Australian man who gave up everything there.

He came to our rat-hole city (Toledo) to pursue his dream to be a successful real-estate agent. His business grew; now he is a general contractor, builds houses and gives some away. He plans on giving 100 away in the next ten years. Pretty cool, eh?

    Genuinely nice to hear. He wouldn't be planning on giving away houses in Tuscany anytime soon, would he?

    Wow , that is cool. My son and I were just talking about that the other day. If we ever won the lottery or made millions somehow, we would want to give a lot of it away. Family and you first of course. ;D

    I have enough money, dear. Give my share to a charity. But you are very sweet.

    Toledo is one of those places I just never hear anything about.  I didn't know that was your location.  I thought you lived in the South somewhere.  You must have thought some of my comments  to you were kind of strange, because they had to do with being in the South.

    That's nice.

    America, the land of opportunity. They laughed when I told them I wanted to be a comedian. Well, nobody's laughing now!
