Getting to know you

[chuckis]

I'm a 66 years old Architect that started buying legos for my grandkids and it turned into a investment. I bought more legos than they could keep up so I had to store the left overs and that was the being of a great investment.

Interesting. Architecture is a job that seems really tied hand in hand with Lego. Welcome to the site!

Cool, and welcome to BrickPicker. I went to Taiwan a few years ago, and I must say...Your glass Coke bottles are pretty darn cool. And I supposed they have to be, for the amount of 90+ degree weather you get.

Hi. My name is josh I am a new member and actually turned 27 today.

[K20sedan]

I'm currently in North Carolina but have been to more than 20 countries in the last 7 years thanks to the Marine Corps. I was just medically retired and decided to start collecting something to keep myself busy so here I am!

Is anybody from Georgia here?

[malkhaz]

Huh. For some reason, the female investor community is severely lacking...

Are you guessing, or there are some statistics? or pool results?

There originally was a poll for "Male or Female" on the thread but that bit was lost when the forum had been converted over to the current setup.

[Sue866]

I always miss these threads.

 

38 year old female here. I have a son, but he's way past his own Lego days. But because of him, we have the old movie studio sets and a bunch of others that are mis-matched all over the place (he also inherited my old OLD Space sets). But now I have begun anew again since last Christmas with my first Friends set. Hehe.

26 about to turn 27.  Got the wife to buy me LEGOs for Christmas and my birthday.  We just bought a new house and I'm working on constructing a LEGO building area in our office.  Life is good.

Houston, Texas. 

 

Is anybody from Georgia here?

 

I was born in Georgia.  The state though, not the country.  Aren't y'all part of Russia yet?

[TheOrcKing]

Well, here is the good news. I finally managed to find all the separately started "Getting to know you better" type of threads and merge them into this one for everybody's convenience. (There was something like six of these running around here.)

Okay, now for the bad. I had to restart the poll so unfortunately everyone's previous votes were wiped. However, the good news in that is the new poll has more options than the previous iterations. I could now 'spread' the age selection, add a choice of sex/gender, and reorganize the locations as well as add a couple more. (I think I have room for a few more regions if anyone would like me to add another.)

I have really been meaning to fix this since the forum conversion but as usual other things kept getting in the way. Anyway, this should now give a much better overall image of the community here for anyone willing to partake in such an endeavor. For anybody worried, the results of this poll are completely private. There is not a single person that can view who voted for what.

39's fine. Its the next one that is more difficult.

 

To avoid it, this year I will be 39a years old.

I don't mean to be rude, but come on, I mean... COME ON!

 

Google, Wikipedia... they don't cost you a dime and you have all the info there.

 

I'm not Georgian, not even closely related to, but you gotta be a little bit more careful when making these questions/affirmations.

Im 21 and currently going into PhD school (originally medical school) and I am NOT going into a dark age. So there is hope.
