When Things Go Wrong, Maybe It’s All Alright
Five rules on finding an opportunity while facing down life challenges
I started researching cars about a year ago because my 2007 Honda Civic was starting to show her age. I decided, by the end of 2019, I would have a new car.

The crash was in no way my fault — and I wasn’t injured. I was going straight, the driver to my right attempted to turn left in front of me.
She got a ticket. My car, Maggie Mae got totaled.
The insurance company wouldn’t pay to fix her. They’d give me a check instead.
