I'm in a sales/insurance related job where it REALLY helps to look like you have some miles on you...the more gray I have in my hair, the better my sales.  People in their 50s and beyond have grandkids your age, and those kids are...

10.5D when I was 21 and bought my first AE's.   I'm 45 now, and some 12D's are too short in length..I'm 20 Lbs heavier too.

I suspect I have close to 20...at my last job we HAD to wear a solid white point collar shirt, with a white undershirt underneath, so I have oodles of them.  Some are just about kaput, and should probably get pitched.  The...

I have never purchased anything to flip...more trouble than it's worth to pack and ship, even if I had made money on the transaction.  I don't do paypal or ebay, just not my thing.
