I was walking out of my Airbnb when I heard the Dream Land theme playing from someoneโs apartment

@TwitchRivals

I'm so hyped to join the company I've wanted to work at for so long! I'm really looking forward to working on future incredible projects.
After six years, Iโm finally debt free. I took quite the personal financial hit for a passion project many of you are familiar with, Smash The Record (aka 'STR').
For those of you that were unaware until now, Iโve had to carry the weight of it since the Fall of 2016.

Fun fact- David Taylor (who just won Olympic gold) suplexโd me 2x in a match when I was in high school
I went in the bathroom and cried immediately after because I was both physically & mentally broken
I never entered a Greco tournament after that weekend

Vacationing out of the country & disconnecting completely off the Internet until July 2.

A year ago I went to rollover my 401k's from previous jobs into my current account.
Someone got a hold of one of my biggest checks & so easily mobile-deposited it into his own account.
After 9 months, I finally won the fraud case and received the check in hand today.
