      @@BRBallin1 This is not a well thought out comment from you. Bill Gates is the perfect example of an extremely successful technology pioneer and yet what he's doing in the second chapter of his life is more defining than the first chapter. The man is well on his way to eradicating Polio worldwide and has given $100bn to charity. Another great example Andrew Carnegie à wealthy industrialist who is known for the second chapter of his life than the first. We today enjoy his libraries and halls he built. I can go on, at some point Zuck will step down from FB and also purse this path.

But I will NEVER forget how Kobe could singlehandedly take over a game and win off grit and skill and a steel determination... I've always admired him. I cannot comprehend that he's gone, even after 4 years.
      2024 is dedicated to 24, he left a legacy behind that still has us aiming higher and higher.
