Hello From New England!

[cigrmaster]

I grew up in New England. Most of the time was Boston. I then went to a prep school called Wilbraham and Monson Academy. I loved the 3 years I spent there. I owned that place.

I then went to Boston University and got a 2 year Bachelors degree and said screw this, I wanted to make money so I became a mfgs rep in the Jewelry industry. After that it was the car business which II excelled in. Then I opened my own businesses in 1990. It was a great business and then I bought one more business and then I retired in 2017.

Glad you're here!
I was born in the Boston area, although I didn't grow up there. I did finally make it back a few years ago, and visited L.J. Peretti. I do love NE.
Welcome, from NE Wisconsin!

Fantastic! I know the Monson Academy, they are clients if mine. I used to live in Ware, MA. I was there for about 3 years, but largely grew up in CT and VT. I run an online tobacco club now, and work in sales. The online club is for fun, for now.

Good for you! It's a great place to visit, but a terrible place to pay taxes lol. I'm just too much of an old school New England boy to leave

Welcome aboard from central N.C., though originally from Chicagoland, but the family is rooted on both sides from New England. I can never remember which states constitute New England, but I think the six that always make the list are Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. There are another five that make the claim. Supposedly, I am the sixth generation relation to the disaffected founder of Rhode Island who was exiled from Massachusetts for his religious non-conformity. Roger Williams is his name, not to be confused with the recording artist of our times.
