Man, what a 180. That is sort of what I wanted to do here. There were some that just got really peeved that I addressed dreamers and told them it was going to be expensive. All I want them to do is say "yeah but I really want to do it, no matter the costs!" I hope that it has that effect on you!

There was no 180 turn there Fred.
Like you, I have a lot of years in observing people, and my exeperiences while different from yours, are just as important to myself (and I hope to others).
I write - probably more than you do and I was giving you crap in the beginning because of the way you implied your inital story. "Dreamers shouldn't be dreaming" is what you appeared to be saying.
I KNOW and UNDERSTAND you're attempting to impart some wisdom to us all. But, you started this little adventure 60 years ago. Some of us are in our fifties and sixties and we're just starting. We don't really want to hear from someone who is telling us that it's "too expensive to start".
By the time we "save enough money" we're not going to get it done at our ages. I'm not willing to wait any longer. The "dream" is there and it's going to happen, regardless of all the naysayers on this site (and you're NOT the only one....)
Finally - I'm trying to give you a break when I made my remarks. I KNOW what you're trying to do.
My advice though, to you, is write that book AS WELL.
