#Video 1 HI ALL! I am Dawn - I am a PT for 25 years. I was born and raised in NYC _ but spent 10 years in SWFL until my son turned 1 and I moved back to NY when he turned 1 in 2010. I am a single mom and I love doing all things outdoors - hiking, camping, beach, mountain climbing - i climbed 2 mountains with my kid and friends in the Adirondacks in August - it was insane and totally not planned! My passion is to create a legacy for my son and so I can enjoy "retirement" - i have had to work very hard with many many jobs to make ends meet, and I DON'T want to ever have to do that again. I got divorced while I was in FL and then through a chain of events that lasted 3 years - I had to go through a bankruptcy and Foreclosure (while he walked away debt free with an education I paid for). the idea of ANY debt still makes me tic, but its been long enough - I AM DONE! My PAIN is the trauma I went through - and I am dreaming BIG for the pleasure part. Right now, I see Ortho and Pelvic - adult and pediatric in my cash based clinic.
I learned about money from my parents. Dad was an NYPD captain, Mom was a NYC public school teacher - city jobs, pension, vested, IRA accounts, got married in 2971 and bought a house for $31k (thats now valued at $850k, noone can afford houses in my neighborhood - especially not single parents). I was told to go to school, pay off all your bills and never have debt. I felt like I failed that with the bankruptcy and foreclosure. They are both retired with their pensions, retirement, social security and very comfortable.
Right now, we're deciding on high schools and I want to be able to send him to a private HS - 10k a year - without blinking. SO my 168 vehicle HAS to happen. For BOTH our sakes!
