SL International Business

I’m a Finnish guy, Age 23, tall and brown eyes & hair. I’m a geek, but i’m also Alpha Male. Not your everyday geek, i’m on my element both deep in the code, and as a center of attention in a local night club. That’s me, not your ordinary fellow.My hobbies include R/C cars, and racing with normal cars, any car will do, as long as it’s a driver’s car! I enjoy high speeds, tight corners, and life threatening moments behind the wheel. I’ve driven in probably now hundreds of life threatening conditions and situations, behind the wheel, i’ve stared death eye to eye more times than i care to count. When you are running 150km/h on fresh, part virgin snow, and face an imminent 90degree corner, a single very small fault might throw you to an impending doom. That’s me, i’ve faced that situation multiple times. Most dangerous however was caused by mapper who locked up during tight section of the course.

No, i’m not a PRO rally driver, not even “amateur” in the sense that i’d drive in a league. I know i would be competitive there, but i don’t have the kind of money required for such. However, i’ve driven against people who do. I were faster than any of them, with a car not built for racing.

A little further in the history, when i was growing up, i faced a lot of problems. At the age of 12, i moved from my dad to my mom. Don’t know really why, guess i wanted more freedom, or was just being rebellious. Soon, i started smoking. I made lots of new friends, and i regret to say, that many of them aren’t living so happily anymore. Some of them are in rehab, because of drugs and/or alcohol. Some are alcoholists, some are junkies or dealers. That’s the people i grew up with. However, some of them has seen a brighter future, ironically, some of them were guys you would have thought might be dead by time they reach 20. They grew up.

I spent a lot of time alone, reading books, on computer, with electronics etc. I’m comfortable on saying that computers perhaps are the thing that “saved” me.

My mom is alcoholic, and because of her boyfriend during the time i was 13-17, i was also taken away by our goverment. My mom got me to lie to them, so i could get back to home. I WANTED back to home, even i knew it was miserable. Also, my mom is psychopatic maniac. Nights when she returned from a week long drinking trip, and began immediately yelling at me, blaming for something, whatever, were rather common. Nothing beats walking on bad weather at winter 7kilometers middle of night, in order to get some sleep at a friend’s house. Or sleeping at autumn on a playhouse which barely keeps any warmth inside.

All this was hard, and bad, and just the top of the iceberg. However, it gave me somehing, it gave me an ability to turn thin air into cash, sometimes, literally. Worse my situations got, easier i made ever bigger profits. It was like, all i needed to know is i need money, NOW, to get some food. Since i were 13 or 14, i had to very often find cash to buy some food for myself. I also paid almost all of my clothing since i were 14, along with all my hobbies and other costs. Also, the little education i got, i had to take all of the costs myself.

No, i don’t got really any finished degree. I got bits here and there, upto University, but not much more traditional education. I’m street smart, i got intelligence, and a ability to smell profits, where ever, when ever i go.

I learned everything i do, well almost everything, by trial and error. That said, i had no clue of banking when i began SLIB. Little did i know! It has been very educative and i’ve learned tons and tons! and learning ever more, and getting ever more curious! Just last week i ordered 7 books relating to SLIB to enhance business, from investment banking to marketing.

So, that’s me in a nutshell!
