I was perfectly happy being a typical Fortune 500 company employee and then decided to start my own construction business.  Well, after surviving two types of cancer (melanoma and non-Hodgkins), being a plaintiff in a federal lawsuit against a government agency (Thomas Neuenfeldt v. Williams Township), getting elected on my first try in politics, leaving a hotel lobby during a jailbreak in my hometown and having my children tell me what a failure I am (they are six and nine years old, disrespectively), I think I should have stayed gainfully employed.
