Just Had A Epiphany

Post by The Harlequins »

Being as i am about to leave the safety of the new player status, where random injuries do not happen.

I have been looking at the finances to see about insuring my stakes late bloomer yearlings.

Seems a lot to spend at this stage i am telling myself.

1 hour later my youngest daughter turns up with some shopping she has been doing to keep me in.

After a kiss and cuddle i could not stop myself looking at her, my mind being else where.

After i waved her off , thats when it hit me.

No amount of money matters if you are protecting loved ones from injury or worst.

Will be insuring my horses tomorrow, thanks to my Daughter :oops:

Frank is such a great addition to the SIM. Glad you're here Frank. And glad you're taking care of those that you love.

I think the last epiphany I had in the Sim was when I sold my first and only horse... I got a great price for her, but wow it hurt to let her go. I discovered at that point, that I was an animal hoarder.

At least it's not that way in real life.

...but if I were a multi-millionaire... I would probably own several hundred dogs and a few hundred cats, maybe a three or four dozen rescued donkeys from India and South America where they are often treated like throw away trash. Yep, I would have a few small ranches to board all those critters.

But since I can't do that in real life, I get to be a hoarder here, I've keep just about all the animals I've bred and bought...with just a few exceptions where I've bought horses just to give to someone else as a gift. I also have 2 horses out there that I've bred and gifted.

Well...at least as far as the hoarding goes...I'm not a 'bad' hoarder, my 2,328 horses are all well kept, groomed, fed, and have their stalls properly mucked, and their companion animals lead a good life too.
