- location:
- Walla Walla, WA, United States
- occupation:
- Investor / Entrepreneur
- I loan because:
- The surest way to build peace and prosperity in this world is to encourage individual enterprise, ownership, and autonomy; in short, we need capitalism. Hand outs typically only create dependency and de facto slavery. Loans respect and foster wealth creation, and as "hand ups" that respect and preserve the autonomy of the enterprising individual who receives them, they foster freedom. "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." -- Chinese proverb
- About me:
- I am a small business owner, an investor in various equity and debt markets, I trade currencies, and I am a licensed pest management professional. I also occasionally teach philosophy courses at the community college/university level.
