I'm a half-German, half-British internet sales entrepreneur. My father was in the British Army as a Royal Electrical Mechanical Engineer and my Mother was a Nurse in Germany. I grew up in many places including Germany & America but lived most of my life in England. I didn't have the best childhood due to losing my father at the age of 4 and my mother at the age of 14 and was forced into foster care at the age of 10. This experience left me no choice but to grow up and become independent at a very young age.
I have always believed in planning ahead and always leaving yourself with a 'Plan B' because the future is never certian no matter how safe you may feel. Although my life experiences may come across as sad, I have never let myself get down because of it. There was nothing I could of done to change my past but we can all make our future just that little bit brighter! Start with a Smile!
When people first find out about my past experiences, People often ask me "How can you be so happy? I dont know what I would do without my family..."
The answer is easy... well... atleast for me... "I may have lost my parents at a young age but I still have hundreds of friends, a roof over my head, food to eat and clothes on my back. That is sadly, alot more than people in 'Third world countrys' have.
There is always someone out there that has had it worse than me or you and because of this, we should all be grateful for what we do have and I feel it has made me the person I am today...
You will never see me depressed or upset, Im always up-beat and always the guy to make people laugh. Life is to short to worry about the past and what you could have done, but just think about what you could achieve in the future!
Im a cheeky, charming, fun and imaginative type of guy. I get along with everyone and never take life too seriously.
If you have read of this, then I will thank you with a bad joke...
**Two goldfish in a tank, one turns to the other and says "Can you drive this thing?"... :D
Told you it was bad! Have a great day and always keep a smile on your face! :)))
