Hello,

I am Tyler. I'm 27 years old and I am a newbie to all of this. It all started about 6 months when I read a book that everyone had always talked about, but I never really gave much thought - Rich Dad Poor Dad. When I read this book, it's as if everything that I had been searching for and everything I had doubts about (like my job and how I was going to become a person who didn't have to live paycheck to paycheck) all of a sudden clicked together. I remember thinking to myself, "how have I not thought of this before - it makes absolute sense." Anyways, since then I have been educating myself (I was a sucker and bought one of their courses, a bit overpriced, but I am still glad I did it.) on REI.

Honestly, I wish I would have found BP before signing up for the guru's course, but as I said I have no regrets. I intend to make this my full time gig by the time I am 30 (meaning I'll be able to support myself without having a 9-5). I am very excited for what the future may hold for me and any one else who's interested in getting into REI.

Thanks for reading!
