learning about REI in Dayton OH via Virginia Beach VA

[Peter Benson]

Hey guys,

My name is Pete, I am currently active duty in the Navy stationed in Norfolk VA and I have about 3 to 4 years left till I retire. I am looking to learn as much as I can about REI so I can use my military retirement and REI to keep from having to go back to a desk job. Once I get out I am moving to the Dayton Ohio area and that is where I want to start my REI adventure. But while I am still in VA I want to get involved with as many REI groups as possible to find out what i dont know about the business (which is pretty much everything).

I have been a huge proponent of the Dave Ramsey program and doing it myself. That is a big source of personal conflict right now. I see the mathematical logic and sense in leveraging my house purchases, but I LOVE the amazing feeling of not owing anybody anything!  that is something I am looking to get guidance on as I move along. 

Thanks in advance to all of the amazing people on here helping out. just in the couple days I have been on here I have learned a ton. 

Pete
