I'm a RE Investor. Started buying homes here after Katrina and flipping them now I buy rehab and AirBnB them which NOLA is a Goldmine for; Also spent 8 years as a Yacht Captain and my former client/business partner now owns a bunch of Commercial Buildings here so he wanted me here to set up shop while part-timing as a software engineer on one of his DP vessels which is originally what my education was in. SO NOLA is kinda the perfect place for me unless I wanted to live in New Iberia or Houma which are both pretty boring.

Hurricane Katrina was in August 2005.

You were 17 when 9/11 (2001) hit:

That makes you 21-22 years old when Katrina hit NO.

And in college.

And deployed?

And working at a startup?

And taking a commercial diving license?

And being a captain at Tom Perkins yacht?

And a real estate investor?

I'm fucking done with this now.

Edit:

I forgot, Nola was studying at MIT in Boston, but apparantly in addition to his deployments, startup work and "multiple civilian jobs", found time to run a real estate flipping business in New Orleans?

At the same time.

In two different locations.

Software engineer now? Flipping houses after Katrina while being deployed at the same time?

Cot damn!



Funnily enough I have had my fair share of jive hucksters in Louisiana. Dudes lying off their asses about fish or deer they bagged. Dudes country as fuck, mouths wider than Lake Pontchartrain, and louder than a Louisianian woman.

Easier to ignore when you are over there and blow it off.

Habitual liars on forums like this one or in more serious environments like a corporate office just reek of omega incel virus stuff. It's like you know what kind of place this is, the stakes involved, or the decorum expected of you, but you still cannot resist that urge to bloviate? Why?

I have no idea if habitual/pathological liars are more common now than in the old days (could be since broken homes are a contributor), but I myself, find those types more depressing to me on a personal level, than anything some dumb feminist does to our society. I've seen coworkers being escorted from a workplace for doing stuff like this, leaving whole departments in a steaming funk, seen NTP and how he damn near tore a hole in the forum, and every time without fail, it puts an emptiness into everyone's morale. It's like walking in on your own brother and he is balls deep in a goat or some other animal. You cannot look at him the same way, yes, but when you walk away from a man you thought was kind of okay/normal like this (most people tell even a few white lies in life), it's like you lose some of that faith in the man next to you. Like how many holding the torch will be around after a while. Can you imagine how the last straight men in Sodom and Gomorrah, aside from Lot, may have felt?

I guess the demoralizing is just that. Demoralizing. No big truth I guess.

Whatever. That's enough internet for me today. Time to wrap up my day anyway.

You called me a "shaky witness", is that a statement of fact, or an opinion.... Hmmm?

In less you have Parkinson's disease that statement is always going to be an opinion.

Listen dragon, I think you got suckered. There's some weirdos out there.

Did you give this guy any money, or do anything for him?

Aloha!

So we got quite a few nautical masters:

Nola, NTP, LibertySea and Hydrgonian. Nice to see the 4th head of the hydra.

There's waaaaay more than 4 heads to this "aquatic themed" and/or "boat themed" hydra that has been stalking RVF for years now.
Every time you manage to cut off one of the serpent heads, another 2 grow in its place.





Heck, I would not be surprised if 25% of the posters in THIS thread are the exact same person using multiple accounts. Some of which are posting "in support" and some of which are posting "in opposition."

In spite of all this mega-manliness, he chooses to spend his time at the Failure Worship Club of Belgrade.

What is Failure Worship Club of Belgrade.? Sounds like something I've been look for..
