Richard Coles' music was nothing more than an interlude in his early years, like it is with so many youngsters. He certainly has put his studies (and thinking cap) to good use. Look no further than the Wikipedia entry on him.<br /><br />As to Paul Nener. Was he as "brilliant" as you claim? Even if: Being good, indeed brilliant at something doesn't mean you like/want to do it. Too many people get trapped in that "Ah, but you are so GOOD at it" and therefore dare not change their lives. What Nener motivated to change his path I don't know. Let's hope it wasn't for nefarious purposes (only joking).<br /><br />Anyway, Cro, these days we have "Portfolio Careers". Once a carpenter, not always a carpenter. Let's stretch our horizons.<br /><br />UUrsulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722046288685936851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227064496185547313.post-24757157746958011532022-01-21T11:21:04.236+00:002022-01-21T11:21:04.236+00:00Did you meet him?

If they chose that in the beginning and it's all they ever wanted to do, then fine. But giving up a lifelong profession for that? Seems weird. Like those long term hard core prisoners who have spent more time in prisons than they have outside, then they "find God" and religion is all they talk about. Until their next crime maybe.Riverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14794655013673748992noreply@blogger.com
