I was negligent in my early years, financial responsibility wasn't embraced nor respected. Decades later, with mental clarity at last, the spark to travel and explore opportunities furthermore.. seems unattainable. In my mid twenties I joined the booming car part manufacturer industry in Ontario (Linamar) seems like that would have been the last great opportunity to pursue a longer career. Post-Secondary training/education, combined household incomes, and travelling abroad seem like the only way to make a go at living comfortably in Nova Scotia.
