A guy I know that I used to work with at Aldrich Chemical moved over to the glass shop (these are highly coveted positions), after a few years he quit and started his own glass business. I probably see him once or twice a month when he drops off repaired glassware at my workplace- he seems to turn away more business than he actually does, and has no lack for money either- usually drives a new BMW... I usually chat with him because he always has guns for sale, a lot of them are shotguns and safari rifles in the 5 figure range. I'd say he made a few solid life choices.
