I don't work for money. Money works for me!

About Me

I'm Roosevelt and I'm just an ordinary guy looking to do some extra-ordinary things. I believe life is too short to be mediocre. If you only have one life to live or your status in the next life will be driven by how you live this life, why not live your life to the best of your ability and shoot to have a positive impact on the lives of as many people as possible. That's my philosophy and that's me in a nutshell. For those of you who want more details, I am a full time business owner and investor. Along with my wife (first page on my friends list), we own three businesses (a real estate investment company, an internet marketing company and a legal services & identity theft protection brokerage). We also invest in a wide variety of financial vehicles. We are expecting our first child in January of 2008. Her name will be Gabriella Michelle Cooper. I am also a Christian, activly engaged in youth ministry. I also attend seminary full time at Bethel Bible Institute in Jamaica, Queens New York for my full time ministry, which will be to teach both Chrisitians and non-Christians how to live an empowered life spiritually, financially, in their relationships and health as well. So as you can see I have a very busy schedule. They say if you want something done, give it to a busy person! Anyway, my father is a member of the group, The Furious Five. My mother, my two sisters and my brother all have myspace pages so you can read about them on their pages (They are the 2nd - 5th page on my friends list). Although a lot of people may not believe it because I do a lot of public speaking and I get along well with people, I am actually very shy and like to spend a lot of time to myself. I have a variety of different interest that you can read about on this page.

My Interests

Biblical study (yeah I'm a bible geek), Business & Investing, Games of all types (whether they be video, board, card, sports, it doesn't matter, I love games), Computers, The Internet, Music, Movies, Reading (I probably read more in a month than most people read in 5 years)

I'd like to meet:

Anybody that has a positive outlook on life and doesn't believe it's ok to live a mediocre life. Also anyone who is looking for an opportunity to be able to start your own business from home, spare time, part time or full time, check out my web site at http://www.createthelifestyle.com We also offer a very unique service that could literally save you thousands of dollars and countless hours of your personal time that you don't even know about simply because there is no way you would even know how to save money or time in this fashion if you don't have this service. If you are interested in that, also check out my web site above. I'm also interested in meeting anyone who has a business that they market online, particularly if your business is completely online as I'm always interested in networking with other online marketers.

Music:

My favorite music is hip hop, but I listen to almost any type of music except country western and heavy metal. I like R&B, Reagge, Soca, Reagge-ton, Jazz, Rock, Classical, Techno, Pop, Dance and more. Although I like listening to music, I'm not very big on dancing. I've pretty much mastered the 2-step, the electric slide and the cha-cha, but other than that, I'm completly out of my element. I also listen to a lot of personal development from people such as Jim Rohn, Robert Kiyosaki, Brian Tracy, Denis Waitley, Jeff Olson, Les Brown and more!

Movies:

Way too many to list here, but for starters, the Lord Of The Rings Trilogy, The Godfather Trilogy, Scarface, The Star Wars Saga, The Matrix Trilogy, Office Space, all the movies with Vince Vaughn (Wedding Crashers, Old School, Starsky &; Hutch, etc), Pulp Fiction, Transformers and more!

Television:

I don't watch a lot of TV, but I do have some shows that I like to watch from time to time. I like to watch sports, of course, basketball, baseball, football, etc. I also like to watch Ultimate Fighting and Wrestling (Sports Entertainment like WWE, TNA, not the olympic type). This year, my wife and I have been hooked on the TV show "The Tudors." I have two MTV shows I like to watch, Punk'd and Wildin Out. I also like to watch some of the old sitcoms, like Martin, The Cosby Show, etc.

Books:

Like the movie section, WAY too many to list here. I read a lot of personal development books like The Bible, Rich Dad Poor Dad, How To Win Friends and Influence People, Think and Grow Rich and The Magic Of Thinking Big. I also like to read a lot of Science Fiction books. Some of my favorites include The Lord Of The Rings series by J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hyperion series by Dan Simmons and The Wheel Of Time Series by Robert Jordan.

Heroes:

My number one hero is of course Jesus Christ. The Top 2 people on my friends list are also my heros, my wife Michelle because she is the epitome of what a good wife is. How often is it that a man can find a wife who is good looking, can cook and clean the house well, is an entrepreneur and an investor in her own right and knows how to treat her man? My mother Katherine is also my hero because she did a great job at raising my sister and I and loved us unconditionally while doing it.
