Moving On

Written by Billy W on July 15, 2009

Well, I’ve finally put my money where my mouth is; I turned in my resignation at work and will become self-employed at 9:00 p.m. on July 29th. My boss, a pretty decent guy all around, said he’d keep the door open for me to come back if I wish. Who knows, that may be an option as a last resort, but I’m determined to make my own way in the world from now on. And, my self-confidence is running higher than it ever has.



Yep. There’s no better time than the present.



So, where to from here? First stop, Las Vegas of course. Looking forward to visiting the folks there and to just being back in the States; haven’t been out of Japan for over three years. And, as expected, I’ll be spending a lot of time at the poker tables.



After that, I’m not completely sure where I’ll end up. I made sure to secure a long-term visa for living and working in Japan, and eventually hope to start up a business here. But, between Vegas and returning to Japan, anything can happen, right? I might find myself in Europe, playing in a major poker tournament. Or, down in Melbourne, visiting one of my good friends in his hometown.



I have to say, I’m liking the uncertainty of it all.
