Hi everyone, I'm Scott. 28 years old, 8 year Marine Corps vet, based in Las Vegas, NV.Starting in a few days I am taking on a private security contract that will take me one year to fulfill.

My name is Thomas Jeffery Sadler, everyone calls me Jeff.I live in North Florida (Perry/Tallahassee Area), with my wife Christina and three children, Aiden (Age 8), Zachery (Age 12) and Gabriel (Age 14).In 1993, I joined the United States Marine Corps to serve my country.In 1997, I left the United States Marine Corps and started a career in the Criminal Justice field.After being in Criminal Justice for many years, I decided it wasn’t for me and changed my career path to Information Technology.I have worked in Information Technology working in various different disciplines from Network Engineer, Application Analyst, to a Field Service Engineer implementing technology solutions within the Healthcare environment.I am pursuing my MBA to gain more business knowledge,I look forward to gaining more real estate knowledge to prepare myself for the future. 

I'm currently serving in the Marine Corps but will be out in 3 years, would it be possible to begin any sort of Real Estate investing while overseas? 

Welcome Back  Home..I was in the Gulf War as a Marine, so there are some great traits you already have so network with others on this site and especially those in So Cal.

BS- Marine Engineering Systems (basically a mechanical degree specific to working on ships) from the US Merchant Marine Academy.

About me, I've been married to my high school sweetheart for 12 years, we've got two beautiful children who keep us both entertained as well as EXHAUSTED :)I am an Operations Program Manager in the Defense Industry, I spent 6 years on active duty in the Marines (OIF Vet).

I currently live in Marin County and would love to find a place a can both live in and also rent out, a multifamily unit.

I am currently 5 months out from EASing from the Marine Corps with the plan of attending college in Colorado Springs.

Perhaps you are referring to SF, Marin, or Lake Merritt/Rockridge A-class properties, but there are plenty of ways to invest in the Bay Area without starting with 7 figures nor able to take a cash flow loss. 

@Christian Marin That is very inspiring and motivational information.
