Oops, I lost part of your quote but I just wanted to give you a thumbs-up.

I honestly attribute a lot of it to luck. School might have been partly my doing (getting out earlier than most), but moving up in the banking industry definitely was a mix of ambition and luck. Mostly luck, lol.

I went from Personal Banker, to Assistant Branch Manager/Senior Banker, to Branch Manager, to AVP of District Operations in two years, and recently took my VP position, and while banking is my forte... I know I'm not good enough to move that quickly without a lot of luck on my side.

So yeah, that's my story so far. I love my job, and thank everyday that I was able to excel in doing what I love. Personally, to me, it was a humbling experience.

Anyway, I'll stop rambling...
You're incredibly successful for your age... and humble. Good for you.

My story:

Grew up poor ---> didn't like being poor.

Studied hard to get out (became a doctor) ---> work hard and saved.

Driver's cars are a bit of a weakness of mine. ---> No brainer, BMW.
