Perhaps I just don't like change all that much.
I've been working my ass off since UIGEA took place and right now I could not be happier with the industry. I feel like there is a never ending amount of work that can be done and many niches to still be captured.
I stopped reading about, thinking about, following, listening to, speaking or writing about anything to do with WTO, UIGEA and things related around March.

Now I feel I just don't want things to change again. I'm extremely focused and the results are good and the potential is even greater, I think the future looks bright right now as is.

If its brought to my attention the situation my knee jerk reaction now is that I hope everything stays as is.

Perhaps change is a good thing, but I'd just as well prefer a few years passes before anything changes because I'm extremely confident I'm only a few years away from being set for life and it will be easier (perhaps more comfortable is the word) to deal with change then.

Its interesting now to reflect on how I felt when this first happened, total panic and anxiety, to how I feel now (I could care less and am in many ways glad it happened because it motivated me to work harder than I ever would have). I'm sure glad I re-framed the situation fast.

I'm not writing this long post just to brag about life being good. My eyes are blood shot because I am working 16 hours per day, my house is a mess, I haven't showered in 3 days and I got all my Christmas shopping still to do. For right now anything I've made I've more than earned but in the long run I know it will pay off a zillion times over.
My point is that anyone upset over some news, should just really clear their head and then refocus the situation.
There is a saying something like (forget how it goes) "You can complain and make excuses or you can go to work and make a lot of money. Unfortunately you can't have both."
Anyways its something like that, and I think that saying, whatever it is, is good advice.
