Title: Bucket List !
Post by: sbenkoski on June 03, 2018, 05:05:52 am
Do you have a bucket list ? I didn't but now i do...  What's the very first thing you'd do on your list if you could !  Mine is to go hunting with a guide and fishing in Alaska for a month, and pan for gold while i was there as well.  8) 8) 8)

:dog: :) :dog: Glad you have a bucket list. I haven't put one together. I do say stuff like I should try that sometime, than time passes by and I let those do stuff go. Its not cause I don't want to do it, just that its not a priority in my life.  :monkey: :) :monkey:

I don't have a legit bucket list - I have to laugh though my grade-school aged daughter indicated she was making a summer bucket list.  I thought that was a great idea.  I mean time flies by and for me if I don't make a list I don't do things... just put em' off.  So why not create a list of fun things to do during the summer.

Getting in a vehicle and travel the country, go wherever we want, do whatever we want.  Of course have enough money to do it.

I have a bucket list of lots of places in the world I want to see before I hit the bucket. Starting with the Patagonia area of Chile where I would love to go hiking to see all the beautiful natural sights like spectacular waterfalls and gorgeous mountains there.

I think JW has a interesting point, and i'm changing my to pail list! I think also  a bucket is a larger container , like  ice  cream you get a pail never a bucket ,  my list is short so i don't really need a bucket.  This was an epiphany !  Thanks JW

I believe a bucket list is an important part of life.  As others have said, life whizzes by so fast.  I started making a list when I was in my 20s (I just didn't know it was called a "bucket" list, which makes sense).

I started to work on it early and I'm so glad I did, but one thing I was steadfast about -- paying off that ridiculous 30-year mortgage!

Winning the lottery ? Not sure if that counts ?  Like my mom always said she wanted to win the powerball, funny she never got tickets till it was huge.   She also clobbered me a good one when i spent hours with a exacto knife making a fake winning ticket to show her...  had her really going for a while.   And the pail epiphany  , i figured you'd as my true hair color !!  ;D ;) ;D

I wouldn't waste my time with the lottery (although I have some respect for those multiple lottery winners who turn it around and sell their 'secrets'?).  With all the online information today, you can make money at the track using a disciplined approach -- and never get too high or too low.  With so little surveys available today, that's where I am headed now with my goal in mind.

I never had a bucket list. I just do things. If I had a bucket list I would have my place to go is italy. I know my grandparents were bore there and I would want to see the area where they were born and grew up :)

I haven't been to track in years.
Was working 2nd shift and a "friend" of mine was going to the track...looked at the paper with the races in it...saw a horse named "Shyawaynapalm"...digged the name so gave my "friend" 5 bucks and told him to place a bet for me on that horse to win...think odds were 50:1.
Next day checked the paper...horse won...no "friend" for 2 days.
When I finally saw him he said "Oh, I didn't make it to the track" and gave me my 5 bucks back.
About a year later another guy who knew him told me he HAD gone to the track, placed the bet and kept the money...that guy hasn't been my "friend" in years now... :turkey: :bad:

Yours is a sad "lesson learned" story, 2nd Amendment JOE, with a lot of mistakes -- no, don't bet a name for crying out loud and don't bet a win ticket at 50-1 odds.  Sorry, but tough love here!  I occasionally give out information so you can make up your mind and make your own bet, but I'm not perfect.  I almost did this last Friday evening -- Prairie Meadows 7th race #2 (and don't bet her to win!).  You would have made ROI -- it was her first stake race and she did not disappoint.  It was as 'sure' a bet as I could have hoped since I know her {I invested small sum in her mom in 2010}.  I have discovered that I could listen to the race feed in the background while doing surveys -- that information keeps me up on things I already know are happening -- so I can take it to the bank (literally, the automated mutuel machine works like an ATM to me -- sometimes I deposit money, but much more often I'm withdrawing it).  It takes discipline, just like GPT sites do.
