A FORREST GUMP TODAY

As an entrepreneur, adventurer, claim owner, sailor, service provider, property manager - own and

foreign properties and have been traveling in Asia and beyond for 10 years, a very happy person, so far at peace with himself and the world. Until March 2020 when the Covid19 pandemic struck overnight and brought everything to a halt. At first I thought -ok, I'll just hit me the beach and sleep off the pandemic - no shit, Covid19 didn't go away as quickly as expected, but literally ate up my financial cushion - like a bottomless paper cup in which one tries to keep cafe- and continued to rampage around the globe, triggering lock down after others off. As a result of the increasingly ruinous time that passed, a solution had to be found, but quickly.

I couldn't go back to the gold fields because I overslept Covid19 at first and wasn't serious took and Australia has meanwhile closed the borders completely. unrecognizable Entry regulations, no matter where you wanted to go. I slowly realized that 2020 and 2021 will be one Disaster. What now ? Off with the sailing ship and, so to speak, through the back door in Australia enter despite the ban?

My long-time companion waved him off, "Dude, if they upset us, they block us for life and confiscate the ship" Gunther was right, knowing full well that the Coast Gard has one already on the radar for anywhere near their territorial waters, and It is well known that the gentlemen of the Coast Guard are fun-loving and electronically very unforgiving.

You don't forget anything, and that for decades. As a freedom-loving person with the urge Going out whenever and wherever I wanted, I became aware and at the same time whole bad and it's not because of the Chang beer, but because of the narrowness of my possibilities. The world that I love has shattered into a heap of fragments light years apart and I can no longer achieve with my possibilities. Only option as a German

Citizen is Germany, the country which I because of personal narrowness and had left freedoms. Arriving in Germany, it made sense to bring my property manager's knowledge up to date Stand to bring me, after exam completion, to recruit from a management company and sit out the pandemic in a nice, warm office with regular working hours and to thread one or the other real estate deal without the knowledge of my breadwinner, like that at least that's what I thought. Family comes first and I didn't want to stay long anyway.

Consequentially I completed the 320 hour course online and received my certificate upon completion of the Test. What followed was sobering and frightening at the same time. Instead of as an experienced senior they wanted to recruit me as a junior (redneck) administrator with correspondingly economical remuneration and the mentally beautiful office was in the basement with the charm of a broom closet and with very economical equipment. isolated case? With nieces! Disillusioned and with fresh Equipped with a current certificate, I withdrew to my little room in my student flat share, surfed the web and came across an article that said in bold black letters: "missing nationwide 70,000 truck drivers" Bingo, I have a driver's license, I drive trucks to a certain extent Always at intervals anyway, to move trailers, boats or car washes, to renovate apartments or to exchange or replace furniture between vacation rentals. It occurs to me that I am also good at operating wheel loaders, caterpillars and shovel excavators and that even perfectly in the Left and right traffic.

Let's go to the next traffic office and talk casually about whether something could be done there. After a short procedure with the German authorities and taking into account the current situation, after completing the course and proof of existing modules 95 became a Driver card delivered with the obligation to keep a mailbox with the name on hand, since the in Traffic fines fought for, ultimately have to be delivered and paid for.

For what else!

Excellent. Another hand tool in the conglomerate of my many possibilities. My existing resources promised me sausage on bread if I sorted them, considered them and according to my current financial possibilities. Meanwhile, my monetary Medium simply gone and no work in sight, which ended abruptly as a young asparagus and strawberry producer from Thuringia called and recruited me immediately. So I curved up through the country at the beginning of summer and delivered its products to dealers and its own sales stands and rehabilitated myself financially quite quickly, as I had arranged and completed a number of deals had. Did he suspect that, yes, definitely. reprimanded ? never.

We're friends now and we have a lot of respect for each other. He questioned my situation until not today, constantly grinning with the unique saying: "a phoenix that rose from the ashes" I let it roll off me without reacting, knowing that the young man was right. For the remaining months leading up to my trip home, I drove through IBC and other packaging stuff Northern Germany and fresh produce through Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria and Hessen.

My summary:

1. was fun: absolutely
2. you got rich: wasn't the goal
3. Getting sausage on bread: sure
4. Do you continue: See Elon Musk quote: "If something is important enough, you do it even if when the odds are against you”
