John Winston Helander

I've been lucky to have done a lot of things in life from travel to 25 countries and 35 states to own my own company, start a charity from scratch, dine at the White House, serve on the Young Republican National Committee, dine with billionaires and be included in "Who's Who in the World" at 33. I've also been in freak accidents, been bankrupted by betrayal of a close friend, been divorced twice, gotten a DUI for trying to drive home 4 blocks (my bad and I deserved it), lost two grandparents and my father in 14 months, had a Vioxx heart attack after a series of accidents and now am disabled. But, through all of it you find you still have your faith and your character and no one can ever take that away. Now I write, have gotten back into my photography and roam the internet making friends as well as finding old ones. My other interests include: Soccer, Golf, Tennis, College Football & Basketball, Skiing, Storm Chasing, Traveling, Flying, Sailing, Fishing (Deep Sea, Fly & Fresh waster), Running, Sailing, Entrepreneurship, Charity Work, Dating, Cars, Motorcycles, Foreign Languages, Museums, Opera, Stand Up Comedy, Cinema, Music, Plays, Poetry, Writing, Reading, Philosophy, Faith, Politics, Gourmet Food, Wine, Cigars, Darts, Crossword Puzzles, Poker, Games (of any kind). I also Collect Watches, Autographed Memorabilia, Cuff Links & Pens. Thanks for stopping in to read my bio. See you around. ~ John
