Hey people my name is Rex. I'm originally from Texas. My wife is from Australia. Met my wife when I was in the Navy. Yeah yeah not at a port or pier..lol We met through some friends on my last duty station. So I had it all planned, get out the Navy, land a great job and get her to the US. Well the radio was playing my new song of new employment opportunity. The Secret Service was recruiting. . So I applied. Being a former submariner, life long martial artist, top secret security clearance, sharp shooter, hell I thought perfect fit.

Woe and behold I get a Conditional letter of Offer. I was in....Wooohoooo!.

So getting great job...Check....

So the whole time I was being interviewed, background checked etc etc

My future wife and kept running into problems and set backs.

After 13 months, I got tired of waiting and the red tape. So with job offer in hand,

I made a decision to go to Australia to see if this was real or not. I had three months before I had to go to training.

So I sold everything I had and went on an adventure of a lifetime.

Went for 3 months and stayed 12 years. i have a beautiful wife, and three of the most beautiful girls in the world or at least in my world.

Well we do what most Australians do, we got a few blocks of land and a investment home.

Then we got pregnant and the those properties allowed my wife to stay home for 6 years and raise my beautiful babies, while I was out working my *** off...lol.

Now we are stateside in Tennessee and loving it.

Looking to build an empire or pay for the girls college i figure they both cost the same.

Looking to get some income to retire on and give my girls options to schools they would like to go.

So I'm an open book and sponge.
