A year older and looking to 2018

ok so I am 62 today, but still think I am 28 and can pull a young bird.
Most will think of me as a pervert no doubt. But if they are willing, I am !!

My life has not been normal. I have been outspoken and taken paths most people wouldn't.
I went to the Middle East and was caught up in a war. How many men can say they could talk about their war with their Dad who was in WW2.

My main ambition driver, was not having to live like my Mum & Dad, always striving to find money for the family. Although, I have to say I had a very good upbringing and really wanted for nothing.
It was just a thing for me, that has driven me. I wish that I had done more for my parents when I could. This haunts me.

In my job I reached high management level and now am a consultant trying to hand over my experience to the younger people.

I got married to someone I should never had. The issue was that I was in love with being married!
I chose unwisely.
However, I did get a bonus of my eldest daughter, who I am close.

After a few years I eventually met my second wife of now nearly 30 years. We are opposites, but still kind of understand each other. I am the more outgoing person, wanting to better myself still. I do regret numerous things in our marriage, but overall its been good.

I have a total of 6 children, whom I treat equally overall. I don't have a favourite because of this.
I only want them to make something of themselves. Things are going to become bad in the years ahead with introduction of Artificial Intelligence and that means unemployment. So they will need to become extra entrepreneurial.
The main thing is that although my wife says I don't do much, when I go they will notice how much they miss me. The family in my mind rely on me for a lot and take it for granted. Because of my family health history and the fact that someone told me years ago, that I am likely to pass in this decade, so I may not have long. Which is a shame because I have so much more I want to do.

I like to help others. The New Year will see me helping the lonely people of all ages.
I provide funds to local organisations such as sport teams etc. This is because I know the money 100% goes to the club. Unlike the usual charities where 85-95% of donations go to real estate, uniforms, musical instruments and of course the chairman and senior mgmt.

I have always wanted to leave a legacy. I want to own an international company that maybe someone from the family can take over and run.
The nearest I have is my education platform, but this is very slow due to money.

I have visited about 50 countries now and lived in a few, so I am luckier than most.

2018 has to be a major year for me, as I am exploding with ideas and needs.
I want to travel more, get the Education platform up and running and buy property abroad.
I will aim for all 3 as best I can. Something has to give and at least partly fulfill, otherwise I am likely to die a frustrated person.

So 2018 lets go!
