New "kid" on the block excited and ready!
Hey guys!
My name is Gabriel Cashman I'm 30 years old and I am originally from Northern and Southern California but relocated to Minneapolis Minnesota about 1.5 years ago.
I currently work in technology at Apple and have held several positions in almost 10 years of employment there. I have been a technician, specialist, trainer and business team member but have done many other things and love to travel.
"What would you do to start investing if you had $100,000 in cash and you were 30 years old in order to retire in the next 10-15 years or is that even possible?!"
What I am looking for here is that I have been extremely frugal living carefully saving and have amassed a pretty sizable nest egg along with some other investments. I have always been intrigued by Real Estate and after turning 30 I really got excited about the idea of making some big and ambitious changes so I can retire early by putting my money to work.
I have a lot of questions and have been doing a lot of research but want to learn more and contribute what I know to the community. I really look forward to connecting with some of you and growing along my journey!
Sincerely,
Gabriel Cashman
