Hi,
My name is Roman.
I am a husband Father and still a M.O.D.E.L Citizen - however I always had some doubts, if this is really a good way to live my life. Also after reading ´The Fastlane and Unscripted ´, it´s not possible to just go back and live paycheck to paycheck - thank you Mr. DeMarco!!
I was born in Germany ( Bavaria). Went to school and higher education. Never liked school, but I kept the parents of my back.
After school I did a carpentry apprenticeship, to please my dad. I hated every second of it and never worked as a carpenter after my apprenticeship.
Ended up in care work. Working with people, who have disabilities. This is actually something I love doing to this day.
Got married.
Moved to the UK.
More care work jobs.
Things happened...
.....2 Years later I am a Project Management Consultant for Volvo and Caterpillar.
Fastforward 4 years and now I live in Switzerland working for Alstom - planning Gas and Steam turbines all over the World.
Nice 5 figure paycheck, nice house and nice car....60hr work week, available pretty much 24/7, two to three weeks gone each month. Debt is piling on, even though I am earning more than ever before.
My wife is lonely and about to call it quits.
However the worst thing was - I missed so much time with my two boys.
Things happened again...
...Alstom gets taken over and I lose my job after 12 years.
The next thing took me by surprise. I though I would be happy, but I fell into a depression. My identity was gone.
We lost everything in Switzerland and had to move back to Germany. For the next year the four of us lived in the attic of my wife´s parents.
During that time ´tried´ to make money doing Amazon FBA - 1000 deflated horse hoppers later - I stopped.
Created software doing Amazon Retail Arbitrage - actually started out well, but Amazon did not like it.
Affiliate doing organic FB marketing - I learned the secret in a 997 course. One year later I made 750 euros.
No I am back doing care work. The difference is I am doing it as part of growing my business.
Speaking of business - I started listening to the market - turns out I have my first C.E.N.T.S business idea - I just say the Fax Machine has to die!!!
I am very excited - but I am also very scared.
Anyway that was a little about me. I want to learn from you guys and I hope in time I can give back as well.
