    Hi everyone,
    My name is Damien I am a student athlete (basketball) at a college in the U.S, but born and raised in Melbourne. I am going into last year of college as a marketing undergrad major, and then completing my MBA over there in 18 months. I spend 9 months of the year in the U.S and the remaining 3 in Melbourne.

    I am unsure what I want to do for work as of know, but I know for certain I want to build a profitable and large portfolio of residential properties. Real estate has always been an interest of mine, and hopefully one day will use it to fuel my goal of financial freedom.

    The reason I have joined PopertyChat is to grow my knowledge and learn from others who share the same interest as I. I have been reading and attending seminars on real estate investing in hope of learning as much as possible. I am currently trying to find my "team" to help set up my first investment, and many in the future.

    That is a little about myself and I am glad to be here,
    Best,
    Damien

    First thing you need to do is get the highest paying income you can. It all starts from there.

    Welcome to PropertyChat Damein.

    Is there a possibility you could be drafted to play in the NBA? You could potentially be set for life!

    As of right now it is looking unlikely, but I will be trying to play overseas in Europe, and hopefully back here in the NBL
