What I do and Why I do it
Okay, rather than tell you some long sappy sad story about how bad my life was born and raised in a town of 3,300 as the male middle transgender child between two sisters, who had few/no decent friends other than a cat, single parent that after age 12 seemed negligent, being arrested 4 times my freshman year of high-school, tackled by teachers on many occasions, countless fights, being chased out of my house twice by my grandma, moved 2000 miles to Los Angeles CA only to fail her dream school, end up homeless, nearly a victim of a scam and changed genders….

Instead I’ll just save that for the more detailed parts below if you’re interested.

What I do: On Twitter I was told to describe myself in 160 characters or less, this is what I came up with… “Motivational speaking independent entrepreneurial exotic animal training real estate investor teaching black belt transgender martial artist on a rampage. OMG!!”

I’ve done sports and novelty activities all my life, and will continue to do them.

Up until age 10 – Skating, bike riding, roller blading, soccer, sledding, ice skating, tree climbing, trampoline, play grounds and equipment, school classes and recess games like dodge ball, 4 square, red rover, kick ball, etc, I even learned to drive at age 6.

Up until age 20 – Skating, bike riding, roller blading, running, pole vaulting, Tae Kwon Do, tree climbing, swimming, hiking, school PE activities which I rocked in.

On a personal and professional level I have a heavy foundation in psychology of both humans and animals from my interest of animals, and being transgender and how the world applies to me, I continue to learn more about psychology, training, behavior, management, psychological type, co-counseling, and various other things in my free time.

In the animal industry side of things I learn to take care of animals in unique ways and learn about methods of working with something that cannot get care from anyone else other than me, and how I am to take care and communicate with something that I’ve never seen in my life, that doesn’t speak English or human body language and has behavior/psychological problems due to it’s history.
As transgender I’ve learned a wide variety of unique social and personal things on every level it’s quite mind blowing at times really, but it has lead me to develop myself that would otherwise be no way possible to better understand myself and others.

I got into investing through a rather bad event in my life and I have come to decide I need that financial security no matter what, and it’s something I continue to do and develop to this day which point me to interesting sources I’ve never heard about in my life that lead me into motivational speaking.

Motivational speaking, teaching, coaching, etc I got into from Investing when learning about the ‘secrets’ to becoming rich, or more technically the word nobody really wants to listen to or bother with: the fundamentals to becoming rich. In these fundamentals I’ve discovered quite a few big names in the field and got into it and was very intrigued… I’m a psychology person what do you expect? Now I’m not stupid but being only 22 I know I am stupid (figure that one out). Even for my age, diversity of experiences in life, accomplishments, etc I tend to really blow people’s minds from all the stuff I put some guessed that I have as much life experience as any 40 year old and then some like changing genders.

But I know that I am not the greatest or even that great at the things I do, I’m more or less a jack of all trades and through my long life story I’ve decided the best way to channel all that stuff into a useful purpose is to be a jack of all trades in providing basic fundamental things in life with exceptional care, sympathy, and humility for where others have been… Because I’ve likely been there, it’s almost a matter of time before I physically kill someone which I hope never happens by accident or on purpose even if they endanger me.

And since I’ve learned all this motivational personal development stuff I’ve decided to channel all my efforts back into communities I came from to show them that they have all the potential and resources needed to achieve infinite success. And provide them with services and resources to assist them even while I’m not personally involved. My last dream was a lie to myself to shield me from my fears, but now I know it was only a novelty thing I can still enjoy, but there are things I want to do in life of more benefit. So I channel all my thoughts, power, habits, and know-how into improving myself


Why I do it: Because I have some fantasy far stretched dream way out there into the universe that believes that it is possible to restructure and rebuild the foundation of modern educational and personal/social developmental systems can be rebuilt from the ground up with a new format and guide to success, efficiency, and quality that would produce citizens of the world far greater than any of the greatest people who live in modern society.

And that the entire ‘negative reinforcement’ punishment based teaching system used on personal, social, educational, professional, and government levels can be completely removed and replaced with a ‘positive reinforcement’ reward based system.

And to promote a positive capitalistic and social system that promotes positive experiences in trust and mutual respect between individuals who aren’t afraid of random strangers saying hi, who aren’t afraid of criticism, who aren’t held back by peers, who have the free power of will and resources to achieve their dreams on a individual, mental, social, and professional level.
I do it for you, I do it for everyone you love, I do it for society, business, and government so that you will do it for others and that they will in turn do it for more people. And that those people eventually work their way back around to doing it for you and me when we need such help in our lives as well rather than feeling lost and alone with no one to turn to.

Fun Fact
My name is 100% custom made by me, Remrie Ra Arrie (Rem-Ree) (Rah) (Uh-Ree), and if you Google (or any other search engine): "Sephroe", "Sephroe Zion", "Remrie", "Remrie Arrie" virtually all the results will be about me. I don't do anything online I don't expect others to see so if you're REALLY interested if I want it known you can find it.

If you’re wondering why I made up my own name it’s because I’m transgender so my old name wouldn’t really work. Since I’ve changed it I’ve actually had many compliments about it, weird…

Details About my Name
š Remrie came from a cartoon character named Rem Saverem from a cartoon called Trigun. She was one of my first heroes despite only being in one 30 minute episode. I used Rem since it was her name and I wanted to adopt as much of her into my life as possible, but also to create my own identity separate of Rem I made it ‘Remrie’. I’ll explain who Rem is in detail under “My Heroes”.

š Ra came about when I couldn’t ever decide on a decent middle name for myself, I then decided that I was neglecting to including my dad and my former self into my life so to reinforce that my dad is always a part of who I am I made it the first initial of his first name and the first initial of my old first name; Robert and his son Allen (R.A).

š Arrie came out of thin air and was tacked on simply because I like how it flows with Remrie. Remrie Arrie is the only name I could really ever wrap my mind around because it’s unique, one of a kind, creative, and I made it, and it is who I am. My dad was telling me about the story behind the meaning of my last name, and how it stood for respect, caring, understanding, ethics, fairness as it came from my grandfather’s side of the story. My grandfather died before or right after my birth so I never met him personally so I can’t say for sure about what came from his side of things. But when my dad told me this I then felt that nobody other than 3 people in my family deserved to bare the last name including myself and my dad, the last person is an aunt of mine named Janet. So rather than keep that name tainted by the other family members, I decided to give Arrie the personal meaning of everything Rem Saverem and my dad/grandfather’s name stands for. Even if I never have a child, if I’m the only Arrie that ever in my genetic bloodline that’s just one more Arrie to make all the difference.


My History
š Born in central Illinois U.S.A (Nobody below Chicago considers Chicago to be a part of Illinois. There is Illinois, then Chicago state. ^_^)
š My mom divorced my dad when I was 3 or less, my dad remarried when I was like 4 or something but that failed quickly too. So I was one of 2 kids my single father raised while he finished college to become a teacher.
š I was always exceptionally small for my size until mid/late puberty, at 15 I started growing more but I was generally just as small as the smallest girl.
š Raised in Illinois in a town of 3,300 people named Rushville. Lived in a town of 100,000 from 1st to 5th grade did soccer, skating, rock climbing, hiking, tree climbing, bike riding and anything possible (I had a VERY lenient parent). Unlike restrictive parents, my dad gave me free range over a 1 mile by 2 mile block of the city to do whatever I wanted; and that's what I did door to door in many instances with paper routes and selling stuff for my school.
š Traveled to Disney World and Key West Florida when I was 10 with my dad and I love it there!!!!
š Lived in Ganado Arizona (tiny town surrounded by chain link fencing) in 6th grade - I skipped 44+ days of school and still passed....
š Lived in Rushville the rest of my life until age 19, (at the age of 12 I knew I started knowing I shouldn't be a guy but instead female, and by 16 I was sure. Puberty from here on out as you can imagine wasn’t fun, imaging growing up through puberty and turning into a fly and feeling as if you’re not human for who you are.)
š At age 12 I learned about the differences between boys and girls through porn magazines, hormonally, mentally, personally, socially, and gender confused my biological programming dictated what I did as I entered into puberty, I experimented with women’s clothing, stuffing bras, putting a pillow under my shirt and pretending I was pregnant, water balloons as breasts, and because of the lack of guidance by peers I went as far as to ‘molest’ my 3 year old cousin. As you can imagine the family didn’t take kindly to that news, I was exiled by much of the family, ignored by the rest, and seemingly everyone gave up on me at that point in my life. Fallowing which my grandma would eventually chase me out of the house on two separate occasions kicking me out… But in a town of 3,300 people where would a 12/13 year old boy go? I just ended up wandering the town at 2am crying with my bike and at the empty fair ground and walk in front of the small police station where one of the officers actually had enough courtesy to ask me why I was out and what was wrong. From there he invited me in and called my dad, I think the cop knew who I was and my dad.
š At age 13 or 14 as a guy I was forced by my dad to get a haircut. I loathed him for it. I didn’t look at myself in a mirror all day or watch the cut happen, and on the way out of the barber shop I kicked my dad in the lower spine (yet held back) hard enough to knock a 5’10 250lbs guy a couple of steps forward and nearly fall down the step. This was probably the first real dream I ever had smashed, I wanted my hair down to the floor or back of the knees. It grows ½ inch per month. At age 17 under peer pressure I would have it cut again to which it was half way down my back. Since then I’ve kept growing it out further and it’s now at my lower back now that I’m 22. At age 17 had it not been cut the first time it would be where it is now and I would feel much happier with myself and have more confidence to keep it long. If it was never cut and I was allowed by my dad and peers to keep it, now at age 22 it would be down to mid-shin bone past my knees to which I’d be have super self confidence. But something as simple as getting two haircuts, at age 14 and 17 never hurt less than anything else. Physical pain wise, I didn’t feel a thing, mental/emotional/psychological pain you might as well have cut my right arm off.
š I Went to Project Insight, a special education 'alternative school' for students with 'special needs'...... Their only needs are care, respect, understanding, support, and flexibility in people who care for them on a personal level. That's all! Yet 80% of the students didn’t get even that let alone a decent educational foundation. Bossed through life, punished by their every action, neglected for everything positive they did, admired by like-minded peers of bad things they’ve done their social, mental, and personal development become confused and lack real guidance. I was there from grades 7 to 12 (senior). 50 students total including all grades (about 20 staff members), two hallways, 7 classrooms, a gym that doubled as a lunch room, and a few miscellaneous areas.
š At that school Project Insight I got in trouble many times, and was tackled many times by teachers, I remember fighting them for so long, and so hard that I literally fell asleep on the tile flooring of the halls where 3 big male teachers had me pinned down at age 14. I remember waking up to the sight of my dad’s feet walking down the hall my way. In this same year I was also arrested 4 times my freshman year of high-school and sent to juvenile hall on the 4th time within 8 months, and was suspended the last 30 days of school, spent a few days in Juvenile hall, and put on probation.... And I still passed. Go figure. Keep in mind that the year before this towards the end of the year, and when summer ended I was looking forward to being in school. I had made declarations to various teachers about my goal to not get in trouble once that school year and being the best I can possibly be which is a remarkably pleasing thing to hear in a school you know the students who are minors smoke, drink, do drugs, carry weapons, commit crimes, etc. Theoretically nothing should have happened, especially not on that extent.

Out of that entire ordeal, that year the only thing I learned in school is that I am to be punished for the things I do rather than the education, parental, and police force doing what they are advertised to do; to be protectors and guide people into a positive path with integrity and respect in individuals. The school punished me when I didn’t fallow their rules instead of asking themselves ‘Why is this happening? What can we learn from this?’, My dad picked me up from jail with no words at all I couldn’t even try to get words out of his mouth, he never speaks, he never counseled me on a thing. The cops… well, they just threatened me whenever I showed any resistance at all and a female ‘official’ representative was shouting at me enough to make me cry, threatening to take me away from my home and put me in a school where students don’t get to go home afterwards all the while I’m handcuffed with my hands behind my back sitting in my chair and she had two police officers beside her as back up. I was in a such a emotional fit I shouted in tears ‘YOU CAN’T DO THAT!!!’ and like some textbook bad guy she responds ‘Yes I can and I will if you don’t behave!’

I beg to ask, who was behaving, the little ‘boy’ threatened by adults with guns and the power to be taken from his home who literally would have charged after her and kicked her solid (Tae Kwon Do is a kicking martial arts which up until this time I had learned for 2 years), or the lady and cops threatening to punish me for anything they deem inappropriate no matter how minute the behavior was as if I were some feral dog pissing on their carpet. They didn’t even tell me they were sending me to juvenile hall, they just said ‘get in the van’ and drove me away. I could tell by the unfamiliar route and location that they weren’t taking me home.

Stripped naked and told to shower in front of a guard using some smelly lice shampoo, dressed up in baggy kakis and a baggy orange shirt and put in a 10x6 (est.) cell with a cement block with a little foam mattress and no blanket and open (reinforced) window for three days (only because I was lucky otherwise a week+) by the third day I started having a severe emotional break down and having fears of being stuck with living with only guys and treated as one, branded as a criminal for life, another of 10,000 reasons for my family to –continue- hating me, fear of anyone other than myself, and fear of being punished for anything I ever do.

There after during probation the courts and officers treated me as if I were nothing more than a criminal who didn’t deserve any respect, sympathy, or understanding. If anyone wants to know what happens to people who fall through every crack in the social/developmental systems from early childhood can look at me as an example. I would have stayed had I accepted that as a lifestyle, as my fate/destiny for which I couldn’t change and simply became bitter towards the world. I can point out every crack I fell through and why, other people’s faults, what can be corrected in them in the system(s) in place, as well as what I did wrong on my end and what I could have done to prevent that.

I’m sure anyone who has been in jail for months/years could look at me and say ‘weakling’ etc and how easy I had it, and on a larger scale it’s true compared to the more long term unfortunate individuals; but the fundamentals of the entire event remain the same. And had I stayed in that environment, if I was put away for a year, I would have adapted, I may even have become more comfortable in my cell than in the real world knowing that people couldn’t get me from inside that room. You may have hated time out and sitting in that corner, but after 5 minutes I’m sure it was nothing but boring for you, not punishment, not educational, nothing but boring. The first five seconds you think aw crap and learn your lesson, by 5 minutes (5 days, 5 months, 5 years) of ‘time out’ you think ‘wow… that lady is such a bitch for putting me here’ and the longer you’re there the more you resent them.
š When I came back the fallowing year I had shut down completely emotionally and mentally from the entire social world, but I was growing angry and bitter and anyone who expressed any dislike for me I took every blow they had and returned the favor. I also tried so hard back then to forget as much of my past as I good, I tried to forget all of it, much of it I did forget but it was only buried. Whenever anything made me think of something negative in my life I’d divert my brain and attention and do something else. Generally unproductive things like videogamesBy the time I graduated 5 months early on Dec 2004 (class of ’05 out of 5 other students at the most) I was a social, mental, and personal wreck. By this time I have migrated down to my grandma’s basement where I spent my days wrapped up in a blanket crying in front of a computer and crying on the cold cement floor as I listened to sad songs wondering every ‘why’ in the book.But if you thought I was miserable then, you should have saw me the day a injured kitten I tried to save was found dead when I awoke one morning. Out of all those years of ‘education’ I was told one thing ‘Do what you’re told’ and it turned me into a robot when it came to anything I did for anyone. “I finished what you asked, what’s next? I can do it… I finished, now what? Sure… Okay now what?” Any work I did on my own became neurotic in their redundancy that stayed with me and trace amounts remain to this day.
š After some later event for a year of my life, despite having graduated on ‘good terms’ with the school as a role model I visited the school Jan 5th 2009 to see what has become of it and the students, to which I learned that in the time I was there, and the students who I graduated before, most smoke/drink/do-drugs/etc, many likely dropped out, one ended up –back- in prison (which I’m sure would have happened to me), and 3 have committed suicide. That’s out of 50 students max.Since my visit before I left to leave back to Los Angeles CA I worked out an agreement to come back as a guest speaker for the students to show them that they have everything it takes to achieve the same level of success I have reached and will reach, and all the potential to become far more successful than I could ever dream… And that they all have what it takes to do so even with the entire world against them. But I want to go a step beyond that. I want to provide the education that they deserve in these schools, the resources, support, and people needed to help them achieve anything. All I had was a VHS tape of a fake dream of mine I used to lie to myself just to run away from my problems, and 2 people to say ‘go for it’.
š From there I did a little bit of college to get the pre-requisite classes required for a college in Moorpark (L.A) California, called the Exotic Animal Training Management program. That's where I got a lot of my animal psychology experience as noted earlier. At this time I was19 and I went from my hometown of 3,300 people from a farming community in Illinois where my dad expected me to take over the family business of farming to drive 2,000 miles (exactly) to the Los Angeles area and northern suburbs and valleys.
š In the program I learned about animal behavior, animal psychology, basics of animal training, positive reinforcement, animal ethics, public relations, put on shows on stage for the public, learned falconry, worked with a Great Horned Owl, Harris Hawk, Serval, Sugar Gliders, Coati, and a Raccoon and also learned how to train rats to run through a maze. And it's worth noting that it requires you to be AT school from 7am - 4pm on average, 6:30 to 5pm average, my longest day at school was 13 hours from 6:30am to 7:30pm. Mind you we work weekends and holidays too, even if there are natural disasters we are there as long as the animals are there. I was doing that for 1 year.
š In the program despite being as happy as I have ever been, it was unsustainable, and the course was too difficult to simply will myself through, it got me through the first half but I ended up inevitably failing. What had happened is I was skimming by at the bare minimum level stressed out beyond belief with my academics and professional responsibilities as I worked out my personal and social gender and my desire to be a girl while I was in a difficult animal program from 6:30am to 5pm nearly every day all the time in a program of 10 guys (including me) and 90 girls, talk about breast envy… On top of that I lived with 3 other beautiful accomplished female roommates with 14 animals7 rats (part of a school project, 2 were mine)3 dogs2 cats (mine)1 rabbit1 snake+ visiting pets and guests in a single floor 4 bedroom house.I was utterly miserable I was actually a bit glad it was over when it was, I just didn’t want it to end the way it did for me… you’ll read about that soon. I was having car problems and couldn’t make it to school, forced to ride my bike at 6:15am 2 miles mostly up hill and a steep hill at the end since colleges love hills. I was throwing up from being sick and stressed out it was horrible. On my last day as a student (on top of ludicrous luck for the past 2 weeks before hand) I pulled over to the side of the road 1 block from school up the hill, got out, threw up, and kept going at 6:20am. I took two finals that day for which I lost my notes 2 weeks before hand (I wouldn’t find until 3 days after the finals). I was throwing up all through the morning while doing work to take care of the animals, I went through all my classes for the day, one class I had to get up to leave 4 times during the final to throw up, this class I passed. The other I was better health wise but failed the course and that got me kicked out of the program for a D grade.
š Okay a quick update to bring you up to speed about what happened before hand and how it flows into the fallowing events.1. one of my cats got the tip of his tail ‘de-gloved’ (all tissue removed from bone)2. my other cat got kidney problems from excessive stress and couldn’t urinate well and could die at any moment3. I lost all my notes for the entire semester of my dream school training animals two weeks before finals, and I didn’t find them until 3 days after the tests4. I failed my dream school despite trying so hard even with a crappy faulty car and physical challenges.5. I fell into a horrible emotional distress crying nearly all day everydayFrom there this is what happened.When I failed I conveniently got evicted from my residence and entered the start of what would become the worst time of my life. Note, at this time I had two cats, one physically injured who just had surgery and another that had kidney (stress related) problems and might die at any second, I just failed my 'dream school' and was evicted by my roommates who weren't even close to me but were all I had besides my cats, and on my drive home and before I got 10 miles away from my previous residence on a 2,000 mile drive to a home I didn't want to go to my car started having engine problems not to mention pre-existing and progressively worst transmission problems.That day I was evicted and driving away I also had a vet visit to take my cats to which when at the vet my cat started bleeding uncontrollably and they almost needed to operate on my cat (this was after my car problems started, during the vet visit I was fixing up and examining my car). Fortunately I got my cat back alive and started the rest of my trip. I got as far as Oklahoma City (Weatherford actually 60 miles W) when my car broke down for good.I got it to two shops and they said the entire car might have to be scrapped and at best even if something could be done they couldn't even look at it for a week. FORTUNATELY I had my bike with me so I scope out local hotels, none accept cats, cost of boarding them at the vet was too expensive, and the only motel that accepted pets didn't take credit cards and I didn't have enough cash. It was too hot in my car for my cats to survive so I felt it was safer to shack up in a motel that was abandoned 15 years ago, raided, thrashed, and every room except one was unlivable.The first night I stayed there I had 16 mosquito bights up and down my arms, not to mention the area recently experienced a massive flood a few days before I got there but the area I was in wasn't hit I don't think. I spent 3 nights in that motel with no power, water, etc with two cats (and actually two rats as well from my animal training class). On the morning of the 4th day my dad showed up to my delight and we moved everything into the SUV he borrowed from his aunt and we drove the rest of the way back home leaving the car there.Would you believe that's not the end? From there I spent every day working my butt off trying to find other roommates and get back out to CA ASAP and I was working with a RE broker to get a place I had been trying to secure since before I got evicted it didn't happen in time. Soon I found a person who would be my roommate and was going out to that way and I was really desperate to make things happen I let down my guard. When all was said and done I had a check in my hand sent by her (from another country where she currently was) I had to deposit her amount and send back the excess included by mistake (If you don't recognize the scenario it's a classic scam I was about to fall victim to), when I got to the bank 2 tellers told me they see major red flags and warned me not to do it... I didn't care I just wanted things to happen I was desperate.I was at home staring at the check, noticed the name and location of the bank and saw that had nothing to do with the individual, so I cross referenced the check verification number with the bank in New York City and they said it wasn't in their records, in other words fraudulent. So at that point I simply thanked the guy quietly, hung up the phone, took two steps into the kitchen stomped real loud and started shouting at the top of my lungs and crying. In this moment I decided I'd never be subject to environmental influences ever again so I made it mandatory that no matter what I would put my life in order, become stable, build a solid foundation, and achieve a state of success where I'd never experience anything in the first 20 years of my life all over again in any way.
š From there I made the goal "Get back to L.A CA ASAP by August 20th no matter what under the terms of finding an apartment under $1,000 per month in ____ locations that accepted cats." At this point it was August 5th, and I couldn't find any apartment that met my criteria then at the very last second I got a hit and they had a room for me. I faxed them a security form to reserve the apt, they accepted, and I literally drove out of IL 8pm August 17th Friday scrambling around making sure everything got together and every detail was completed and arranged and flew out of there with the physical application to the apartment in hand with deposit and rent in hand I didn't even have time to wait in the mail for it I had to be there NOW! On the way I passed through St. Louis, picked up my dad who's a truck driver who finished his route there, we drove down to OK together and got the car back, it had been repaired and was in good shape again. we traded off and dad took the car to Illinois and I kept his truck since it's more reliable. Note: I slept two hours total on the drive to OK when my dad was driving, and I took a 3 hour nap once we had switched cars. From 5pm (central time) Saturday August 18th to 4pm (pacific time) to Monday August 20 I drove without sleep (that’s 49 hours without sleep FYI truck drivers can only legally drive 15 hours and are required to take a 15 hour break to which I drove the rest) at 80mph to 90mph much of the way to LA without stops other than food/bathroom/gas. 2,000 miles in 66 hours nearly exactly. And to my surprised the management at the apartment I came to was closed at least 4 hours early! I got there 2 hours before they closed, and called leaving a message 2 hours before I arrived that I was almost there and never got a response. Oh boy I was looking for an ass to kick and I got a black belt to prove it. I used to think I was driving my truck the 2,000 miles, but in reality the truck was probably driving me because I was DRIVIN. Had I got here and not had the apartment worked out the fallowing day I would have just lived in the truck with my two cats and continued the future path as fallows in my history up to the present.
š Well all's well that ends well, things leveled out at that point. I secured my second chance at my dream school but fortunately wasn't accepted back in the first time. But in that time since I arrived, the first month I started hormone therapy to become a girl to start the most basic fundamental foundation we all need to succeed "Be who you are no matter what", to ensure I never had a repeat of the first 20 years of my life I need to secure my financial independence and sustainability so I started learning about money.... nobody had taught me a thing about it in the past this was make it up as you go.My very first search was on Wikipedia "Stock Market" and I read everything I could stock market related via Wikipedia in every detail. From there once I felt I had exhausted Wiki I devoured everything on the site Fool.com and what they had to offer, as well as many other sites that I could get my hands on. I wasn't just reading it, I was taking notes and saving information for quick reference on my computer in files which I still have to this day. Mind you the entire time I was doing this from Oct to February I didn't have internet at my apartment so I was driving around town with my laptop leeching off of any wireless I could from my truck and learning that way from 5pm until 3am nearly every night until my computer battery ran out. When it did I'd charge it at home and head back out. I did this in the cold, in the rain, late into the early morning, every time I had battery power.
š Eventually i felt comfortable with my knowledge enough to start up a Roth IRA, contribute 4K of a 10K inheritance I got from a relative who passed I never knew a day of my life and I kept the rest and/or experimented in some various stocks. Great timing huh???? CRASH!!!! Even still my IRA still has 4K in it go figure. The stocks? Eh they tanked but I did it to learn so I was expecting mistakes and you learn more from mistakes.
š By May I was living full time female with my new identity and name, new friends, new family, newfound happiness unlike anything I was experiencing at the time. Now it's so ungodly high when I'm sick and injured at the same time I still feel better than I did on my 'best day of my life' before hormones. And the hormonal changes came about so fast that my body had pretty much changed completely within 8 months of starting.

Since May I started became great friends with my only co-worker at the time, and her mom gave me various books to read and taught me about Robert Kiyosaki. The books she gave me were the fallowing:
1. Rich Dad Poor Dad - Kiyosaki (paper and audio)
2. Cash Flow Quadrant - Kiyosaki (audio)
3. Rich Dad's Guide to Investing – Kiyosaki
4. Why we Want You To Be Rich - Kiyosaki and Trump
5. Richest Man in Babylon – unknown
6. Millionaire Next Door – unknown
7. Who Moved My Cheese - Spencer Johnson

10. And she also gave me access to her entire Choose To Be Rich coaching program with Audio and work book, I photo copied the entire work book and ripped the music from the CDs to ITunes for my own future reference and future study later on.
š Needless to say I devoured everything unbelievably fast and well, and I just didn't memorize this stuff, I comprehended it which is VERY rare for me and information I learn. I could apply it to my life in many ways and make choices based off what I knew. In my quest for more information and from what I learned Real Estate sounded like the most stable way to go and most feasible, especially with the market on a HUGE down turn I didn't even want to touch it. So Oct 1st I joined Rich Dad Real Estate coaching and smashed my head full of the information I was impressing a seasoned coach on their team and I would have seriously closed on a 19 unit apartment complex in Illinois from CA by January had all the dominos fallen into place.
š Well I moved into phase two of the coaching program (am still there as of now as well until July 1st 2009) and my coaching sessions are gone and I lost that drive I had. Because at first up until I joined Rich Dad it was all 'Self' oriented motivation, my will, passion, and personal greed but even though I was still poor at this point I was satisfied, just not sustainable. Once I joined Rich Dad coaching it my motivation was peer driven, driven by the people who kept me company, gave me meaning, support and encouragement, even if they didn't do anything to force me just their presence would keep me going.
š After two months of nothing/very little through Jan and February, I decided at the start of march that I needed to focus more on my personal foundation before continuing to grow, and in self reflection I realized I was lacking peers to give me such motivation to keep going. My first two heroes (Goku from Dragon Ball Z, and Rem [Note my name Remrie aka Rem] from Trigun) have become outdated. I have decided I need to focus on picking a few more personal heroes. I have a few on the list overall but I think my key ones will be Napoleon Hill, Gandhi, and Anthony Tony Robbins. Any other heroes I pick will be more specialized for a particular interest like Kiyosaki and Andrew Carnegie, Henry Ford for business. Warren Buffet, Sir John Templeton for stocks, etc.
š And that's pretty much where I'm at now. I just need to start looking at their personal history because coming up I can sense the advent of a time requiring immediate, powerful and precise action. Because I'm running out of money, my foundation is complete, and the economy is prime condition (depending on a few things) for someone like me to start, and I am nearly done completing a rather complex fundamental foundation for the rest of my life whether I succeed or not.
š My immediate goals are to become successful and financially sustainable by real estate rental income, go back to the exotic animal college I failed and pass it, and head back to my school Project Insight to show the students where I have come from, what has happened to me, and how I managed to succeed and do my part to convince them that they have greater potential than anyone else to achieve anything they could ever aspire to in life with meaning backed by honesty and integrity by their own character for who they are as a intelligent individual. From there, just refine, repeat, refine some more, repeat again, continue refining, and repeat and in the process expand into other fields through other companies I will build and make successful.

List of Quotes by Remrie Arrie

I’m not superman, I’m not super woman, I’m better than them both because I am human. And a human possess indefinite amounts of potential to create and do anything and everything beyond the imagination of super heroes. Their very existence is nothing more than a product of our imagination. By applying that imagination to myself I will do things Superman could only dream of doing; if he weren’t just a product of our dreams.
