Life and Friends with Space Heaters
My only buddy David Carly, was twenty one when his pops died and left him over 1.5 million in his assets. Now Dave had always been different from most of us. We would have twenty dollars and get together and find the fastest way to blow it. Not Dave, he would get his pay check, how much ever it was, and half would go in his savings, and the other half he would toss in towards what ever we were headed to do. His Dad was that kind, and his folks were the wealthiest family I knew personally.
So Dave took his pay check and bought the electric space heaters company. Now that was 1978. By about 1991 or so, that same corporation was worth about ten times what he payed for it. His electric space heater investment had payed off, and payed off big. We stayed in touch over the years and he got hitched to Sharon, had seven kids, including Nathan, who was a real clever kid.
By now, 2016, Micheal was pretty much running things at the Burnsright electric space heater business, and they were doing very well. The country had just barely begun to rebuild from the second great depression of 2010. Dave and I were spending a lot of time together presently, and since George had been killed, George was another one of our good lifetime friends, our families had been seeing a lot of each other.
George and his spouse had lost there lives in a car accident just a few days ago, and it had done wonders to draw the old friends back together. We would sit around the portable electric space heater and talk about the old times and catch up on the years past, and as I saw it this was what breathing was about.
