Joseph's Story
Life
Joined the Navy upon graduating from SPHS and was stationed on a ship home ported in San Diego, Calif. While in the Navy I made three western Pacific Cruises which I still remember very well today. After my hitch was up in the Navy I returned to South Plainfield and hung out for a couple of years and then decided to go back to school.
I graduated Rutgers in 1977 with a BS in Accounting. During that time
frame I got married and had two kids. Divorced 9 years later. At 36 I remarried and had another child. That marriage lasted 20 years and now I am divorced again.
All and all life has really has been great. I can't complain about anything. I have done so many things and have gone to so many places and I have enjoyed every single minute of every day. I wouldn't change one thing in my life that even includes my two former wifes. First marriage was so so but the second was real...Expand for more
ly great for many years and when it was good it was good.
I worked in the corporate environment for many years in the financial departments of the companies I was employed with. In 1990 I found myself on the outside looking in and decided to go in business for myself. For the last 13 years I have operated a financial services company. I love the freedom that comes with working for yourself.
The past couple of years I started singing professionally at various types of private parties. I sing Sinatra during dinner hour.
During this past year I got very involved with South African wines. I have spent alot of time in the NYC at wine tastings and selling these wines. I have really come to love the whole business. When you come right down to it, I love fine foods and I love wine so whats not to love.
Life is a beautiful thing when you
live and enjoy every single day with a smile.
