Back 20 years ago when I was working hard in Fort Myers, Florida with my Carpet restoration business after approx. 10 years I decided to sell my business with my business broker friend. After just a short time he found a buyer at the full price I was asking for it - "What to do Now" was my thought. Being divorced at the time I had no worries so I decided to travel. My long time dream was Hong Kong. After checking on the internet of course I found that Hong Kong was transferred back to China the year 1997. Interesting but I thought of Hong Kong as a shoppers paradise but with the change over I was not sure what to expect so I kept looking for a travel bargain. I found a tour group that was going to Thailand for 10 days all air travel and hotels and a few meals for $1100 usd. Wow what a bargain. I could not wait to leave Florida after my money was in my hands so I was off to Thailand for 10 days. After my return to Florida again my thought - "What to do now" to be continued.
