Today, I met a powerful businessman who is worth 100 million dollars. In conversation he told me he regretted never making it to his son’s hockey games or his daughter’s dance recitals. It made me smile because my dad is probably only worth as much as this man’s last paycheck, but he made it to everything. MMT

Sadly, this story is more common that one may think. TAS, Smile-Therapy.com

Can you say.. priorities? TAS, Smile-Therapy.com

Nice to know that I wasn't the only dad that did that. My son is 32 now and we still go golfing and pheasant hunting. His mother and I never miss any of his soccer games, and he still plays.

awww wow

I don't understand this...how did his life insurance come up in your conversation?

I remember barely seeing my dad on weekdays because his stressful work schedule. But he never let me down driving me to my saturday morning hockey games.
