VAF Anniversary
Today makes 13 years since I bet the family farm on VAF as my full time job. In 2007 when I took this leap, I had no idea 2008 would carry with it such an economic downturn. "Surely that won't happen again", I said to myself confidently.
Enter 2020 <grin>. And stop calling me Shirley.
Hang tough everyone, thanks for supporting this small biz and its advertisers, and stay safe. We'll get through it.
v/r,
dr

Congrats
Congratulations on 13 years.
Could not have done it without you. No seriously.
Without this site, I would be covered in wood dust and fabric.
Thanks for all.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!
Can't believe it's that long since you went full time!!??
I DO remember the "old" chat forum before that when I was still selling RV Insurance!
Wasn't that like 20 years ago now?
Best wishes to you and the family, here's to another 20 at least!!
