New member from Russia
Hello! My name is Elizaveta, but feel free to call me Elizabeth. I am from Russia, just moved to Ludington Michigan a year ago.
Here is a little of my story:
I have master's degree in finance and degree in English-Russian translation. As I have just finished college, I have 0 experiense, especialy in another country. So I am doing my best to educate myself by reading lots of books, blogs and forums.
And this is how I appeared here:
At the book store I saw (of course) "Rich dad, poor dad", that I've heard about from my friend in Russia. I loved it, that's how I found Brandon Turner's blog. And Brandon led me here. THANK YOU BRANDON FOR THAT!!!!!
I've been studying about real estate investing for 6 months now. I'm interested in Grand Rapids area mostly. I absolutely love Biggerpockets!!! I can't believe that so many people like helping newbies to reach there goals. Thank you all for that!!! And thank you Joshua Dorkin for creating all this!
