 What is your self-worth

So far looks like I am clocking in at last place (of those with the "ah'em" to actually come out and say it)
Age 34, CI: 20; - DCI: 3; GCI:17. Even threw in the weedeater and pushmower. But since I affirm to the axiom "its cheaper (to run / maintain) if its electric, I dont feel so bad.

 What is your self-worth

Not so fast, I thought I had last place wrapped-up. At Age 38, I had a CI of 15. I also, had to include the weed-eater, push-mower and, the car that technically belongs to my wife just to get there Smile My DCI is 3.

Ya know, this thread is really doing nothing to elevate my self-worth, or boost my ego So Sad

 What is your self-worth

Mark, unfortunately I had a crap-shoot to start with, genetics set the rules, we can only improve the odds a little.

Everyone on my mother's side of the family were very long-lived and enjoyed great health. She has an uncle who will be 98 this coming August. He still keeps his own home and cottage and drives himself back & forth, WITHOUT GLASSES even.

My Dad's father had a massive stroke in his early fifties and was unable to work the rest of his life. They now figure he had suffered several heart-attacks also, but had 'worked through them'.

As for the experience, etc., the way I figure it is I worked 80 or 90 hours a week for MANY years so I actually have 40 years experience not 20, at least that's my story and I'm sticking with it.

As I've said before, that's over now, I am now strictly following a 'light duty' schedule.

I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to look after the one machine we think of the least, ourselves.

Take the time to enjoy life, your family and all the things the good Lord has blessed you with.

Best of luck.

 What is your self-worth

The Docs told me I could expect the same as the old man..... so far I am 15 years past the mark. My older brother had a MI when he was 46, he is wrapped a bit tighter than I.

I guess I am just trying to let you know two things:

1) many times early attacks are never repeated,

2) never in history have we had the ability to repair/control the damage that we have now and we are making quantum knowledge leaps about every six months.

A couple of my compatriots on the department had serious heart attacks that were moderated to absolutely minimal damage with the immediate intake of aspirin and the administration of clot busters in the ER.

I expect you and I will be trading quips for many years to come, God willing and the creek don't rise.

Well, I'm on the low end here with an age of 45 and a CI of 39, 35 GCI and 4 DCI. Now 6 of those GCI's were made by Mercedes Benz in 2003, (can I count them twiceSmile

 What is your self-worth

Mark, I know what you mean about early treatment.

I was very lucky, mine happened while I was on a deer stand at our camp. When I failed to make a twice an hour radio check-in my cousin came looking for me. Fortunately he was sporting a first-class hangover and had a bottle of aspirin in his pocket. Another member of the group also had nitro. with him. By the time they got me out to a clearing at the highway the air ambulance was already landing. They had me into the Cardio ICU in no time flat and were pumping me full of clot-busters and stuff.

The doctor told afterwards it would have been fatal if I had been alone at the time or had not got the treatment I had as fast as I did.

By the time I was out of the hospital the doctors (and my good wife) had me on a very strict diet, exercise and lifestyle regimen. When I went in for my 18 month checkup the Doc said I was 100% with almost no visible residual damage and no blockages. He told me I had to conitinue to play by the rules because he didn't like having 'repeat customers', I told him not to be offended if I never saw him again.

I learned my lesson, no amount of money or success is worth that price.

Best of luck.

 What is your self-worth

Corrected values age =41 CI =93 I forgot a car I inherited several years ago from my uncle a 1962 coupe DeVille with 31,000 original miles on it. I forgot it because its not at my house and I never drove it. It is interesting my uncle was loaded and kept cash all around his house when he died at age 90 he had a 37 year old married girlfriend. We found out she had already got 1 $100,000 CD put in her name and had an agreement of sale on a $750,000 property. We know she got all the cash in the house. We were told that he also kept cash in the car. I went to check on it yesterday and noticed that the driverside rug was pulled up and broken razor blades were scattered around (one of my uncles boobie traps.)We never had a key for the trunk so after seeing the rug I called a locksmith I should have a key today or tomorrow. Knowing my uncle there could be more than a spare tire in the trunk.
