Bobby J. lived out of his car for a year.

When I did the pro Moto GP thing I lived hand to mouth for a lot of years. Never got the factory ride, never made the "big Show" in Europe. Could have spent that time getting a degree, instead all I have is a diploma from a lousy high school.

Never regretted it for a second.

I learned more doing that than I ever did in the 6 months I went to JC. Money's just an opportunity tool, it's not a life.

You're talking like a responsible parent (shudder).

Is...this...the...end...of....

Botto?
