My Name is Jim. I'm currently teaching in Korea, but have my home base in Space Coast, Florida area. From 1993 to 2000 I was a Real Estate agent, and owned two companies, one property preservation, the other a note purchase company (NPN, PN, RPN, & REO). I've been involved with most every property type out there, except for heavy duty industrial, and towers. After that, I worked in the CREL department (Commercial insurance, and draw manager) of a now defunct bank. Once the bank went bust, I went to work for a wall street firm in their bonds department. I also have an MBA, with a concentration in finance.
Teachers don't get paid much, and with a bunch of experiences, I'm now at a point where I need to generate cash flow for retirement. I've got about 5-10 years to get this done... so it's going to have to be more aggressive than the average bear. I'm on BiggerPockets to refresh my skills, learn new techniques, and make deals!
