Having a interest in REI, and googling around internet, I get REI related emails, and so I have BP, Google, and Joshua Dorkin's savvy to thank.I'm a Newbie currently living on Salt Spring Island, BC, Canada, and will be moving back over to Vancouver Island ASAP - Victoria, would be fantastic, and so would Qualicum Beach, but Sooke, Nanaimo, Ladysmith, Deep Bay, or Qualicum Village / Falls are possibilities - the bigger the hub the better - for networking and also for performing & recording meditation music (hobby - business).I work 6 months per year as Marine Engineer with Canadian Coast Guard, and get the other 6 months off (with pay), but I hope to replace this income with my new career as an REI.Being new, I need to absorb, study, and learn as much as possible as quickly as possible, (to be able to change vocations / careers within next 24 months).

The earth is 4.5 billion years old, but we are a young species, relatively speaking, with an average individual allotment of three score years and ten.

After college, I accepted a commission in the Marine Corps  and have been serving as an Engineer Officer since 2011.

I also know how to get the money from the Soldiers/Sailors/Marines if they don't pay the rent, currently though I just don't have the money and/or knowledge on how to acquire them yet).

A little about me - I am a former Marine Corps officer (helicopter pilot) living in Northern VA.

But I have offered this to many people including someone who is in the Marines here in San Diego and I usually have people excited about this and then just not go anywhere.

Please help :) Hi @Karmen Wong, we’re practically neighbors:-) we’re over in Marin County right now.We specialize in investing out of state and set aside a few hours each week helping others get started.I’d love to connect and help out if you are interested.

Cities and States that are business friendly.You are Marin County? 

@Jessica Marin Because I'm living upstairs and don't want the type of person who is on Section 8 as a neighbor.

Marine-CU tends to have higher rates, but more flexible lending standards.
