More fantastic information. You’re right you have to consider down the road, as we age, and how your needs and wants will differ. I at least don’t have to worry about rushing into trusting people. I don’t trust anyone completely. Sounds a bit negative, but everytime I have I gotten taken advantage of. Thanks for another good informative chat.
