First I will mention my 3 sons. Joey, Nathan and Nicholas. They are the best kids any parent could ask for. They are incredibly smart (god knows where they got that). They all have a great sense of humor, which is very important in order to survive in this world today. I love hanging out with my kids! I'm a 32yo armenian jeweler/gemologist...i come from a long, long line of armenian jewelers and im getting out of the retail end of jewelry starting this weekend...i've tried many other jobs along the way, but then I start to hear this sucking sound, like a vacuum cleaner makes, and it gets louder and louder and finally i realize it's the jewelry industry and it's sucking me back in. but, now i hope to sit in an office all day (as long as I can leave when ever I want) appraising/repairing jewelry and buying gold...lots and lots of it, so my brother and I can fly to NY on the regular and sell it in the diamond district and afterwards go on drunken escapades all over the city...and we can try to convince my sister to go with us, only she wont b/c she wont fly. I hope to never have to deal with retail sales again for as long as I live...but if i know me, I'll change careers again. I'm interested in coming and going as I please but it's very hard to do with 3 kids...the kids are god's way of keeping me in one place for a little while, but you better trust when they are grown, i'm outta here.
