Hello all, from a New Jerseyan currently living in South Korea!
My name is David (you can call me Dave if you like). I graduated college in 2012 (dual degree Pre-Law and Africana Studies; completed in 3 years 2009-12) and for the last two years I have been teaching English in Asia, last year was Beijing, China and currently Seoul, South Korea. I'm 23 years old, my home (Parent's house) in America is in New Jersey.
Before I came to South Korea, my parents told me about the idea Real Estate Investing. Upon doing a ton of research (google is amazing), I stumbled on to this site (which is amazingly awesome!). My contract (in Korea) is coming to a close soon and I am planning on coming back to the States and buying my first property (hopefully in NJ, but I'm open minded).
It is important for me to state, while I really wouldn't mind being extremely rich, my main goal is helping people. From my travel's I have experienced people less fortunate than I, while I was able to help teach them (not only English, others such as Basketball and few other hobbies) I realized that yes I was able to make change, but it is really small in the Global scheme of things. I want to use want I make from REI to help setup nonprofit programs around the world!
Well that's me in a nutshell, I'm looking to make many new friends. Reply or DM/PM me anyone is welcome. I don't have really any experience in Real Estate, but I won't let that stop me as I am extremely confident that I will succeed!! :) However, I do have two years of experience outside the States that someone may find interesting.
This may be long and I'm sorry I don't know the average post length for intros on BP. But if anyone specifically from New Jersey (all other states are welcome too!) would like to help a young ambitious man with goals, I'm here and would truly appreciate it!!
