Kudos to you for sharing your story, Ray. If I had every penny back that I threw at a project hoping someone would/could do the work for me, well, let's just say I'd probably be doing a Ted talk instead of still learning to do the things I should have done before I began spending dough.

But I'll tell you one thing I can see from the story you've shared. You're a winner. It's just a matter of time.
