Hey NC Here's my story. In 97 walked out of marriage, 2 kids, owed 70 k, had nothing.Then lost job. Lots of quiet tears, and wondering what would come next. 11 short years later...I am remarried, I live in a 470k home, owing 150k on it. I have 2 more beutiful daughters. I am good freinds with my ex, and have a great relationship with my two older kids. Over the last 6 months my shares(which I started with 40k a couple of years ago)went from 700k down to below 100k again...but you know what...It doesnt bother me...I've been to the bottom..and realise that eventually things will turn around...PATIENCE and a little hard work..11 years has flown. You say you have no freinds..judging by the comments on HC you have plenty...all with positive sentiments. Thats the clue...be positive and things will work out..be negative and unfortunatly you will see the negative in everything. Good luck NC
