Transitioning Out of the Military
Hello Everyone!
I am currently active duty in the USMC, stationed in Japan. My time in the Marine Corps has taught me so much, and I am thankful for the opportunities it has given me. I am from Middle Tennessee, and I look forward to returning there eventually. I have a beautiful wife and newborn baby girl that I would give the world to. My long term goal is to retire early and spend time with my family, utilizing real estate as a means to get there; this is something I am willing to take risks and work my butt off for. I am a big believer in giving, and I intend to help as many people as I can all along the way. In the future I plan on trying to intern/apprentice/work for free to contribute to someone much more experienced than myself, in order to gain some experience for myself. On my way out I plan to utilize the SkillBridge program, a DoD program that allows service members to work for employers at no charge, so that they can gain some useful experience. The program is amazing for both employers and service members! If anyone has any contacts that could help me with that process, I would greatly appreciate it. I may be inexperienced, but if there is anything I can do for any of you, just give me a shout! I am excited to learn a lot from this community!
