I recall a comment from one of my professors while getting my MBA. He had a naval background and was fond of saying " A partnership is the only ship that won't float".

I wish you the very best for the next chapters in your life. Good Luck!!

Great fortune on your next chapter Brian. Went thru a bad split with a partner in 95. Learned a lot and it was a good learning experience.
Cheers brother enjoy the meal and the future

Well worth it though and I'm happy this chapter is concluded

Good luck and move forward. My wife has a plaque in our home that says " Don't look back, you are not going that way". It's a corny thing she picked up in a Cracker Barrel restaurant on the road or something but it makes me chuckle every time I pass by it.

Thanks for sharing a little about the end of the chapter. Wishing you the best for the next part of your journey. Family is a blessing. Perhaps a small break ~ more time for them, and for the WIS hobby? You had the kind of evening I would have aimed for, in that situation. 🤙
