About Me: 

My best friend told me awhile ago about the book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" it took me about 6 months to finally read that book and everything has changed from there on. I work in a cement production plant and over half of the work force has 30 years of seniority. Sounds great and secure, right? Only problem is that their average age is 55 and alot of them look and feel like their 75. Thats not what I want for myself or my family. I am very happy to know that we will not be teaching our son to go to school get a good job and then hopefully the 401(K) will allow him to retire.

CBRPOWER has been a great help in clarifying so many aspects of Investing. If you ever have the chance to meet and talk with him do not waste it!

I did 5yrs. Was a Electronic Technician at MCAS New River. Been out now since May of 02. What about you? Well, I just make it a habit to talk to any Marines I come across. Good luck in REI and God bless. Semper Fi Jarhead.

I am a Reservist at the Rock Island Arsenal. I have been to New River passing throgh a few times. I went through the hatch in November 2004. Final Drill requirment is November 2010. I may or may not stay in. I haven't done my MOS since I have been there more than 3 times. I finally changed my MOS to 0931 CMT (adapted form of PMI) and I have been very busy with that MOS running rifle ranges.

I love talking to Marines escpecially when they are Investors. One of the Sergeants in my unit got out 2 years ago. I had a Duplex up for sale on assignment and he had called on a bandit sign. We were first discussing the deal for about 10 minutes then we asked what eachothers last names were.....45 minutes later we were amazed that we meet this way!

How long have you been investing? What books have you read? Let me know I love hearing other peoples opinion on their books and education. Good Luck to you as well. Failure is NOT an option.
