[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

	Are they people who work 7 days a week and 10 to 12 hour days? Do the top 1% chase the top .1%? He is richest who is content with the least, for content is the wealth of nature.

	I dont know... You could be retarded and be content just for having a meal but is that preferred? Would you trade in being retarded or a dog for being a smart human that can work on difficult problems that stress you out? I surely wouldn't. In my opinion you are a winner if you require the most riches and are able to aquire them and become content - then you're a winner. -----signature----- (none)

	I need challenges, it looks like I'm going to be buying another anodizing company down in Orange County, they have a really nice set up but the owners know nothing about anodizing or running a business and ran it into the ground. Getting a business going from basically the ground up is a lot of work but interesting. Since I'm going to have someone else running my original companies I am going to get this one going and turn it over to someone I trust to run it and then just keep an eye on all three companies. -----signature----- Politicians are like diapers, they should be changed often and for the same reason.
