WELCOME TO MY LIFE !

About Me

I guess for some reason people want to know alot more about me- so here it goes: FIRST and foremost ! I am NOT a PIMP, Personal Trainer, Photographer or Body Guard and "NO" I don't work for Playboy! What do I do for a living ? Irrelevant, I am NOT here to prospect clients or scour for business opportunities, I am fortunate enough to have so many friends (some of them gorgeous, eh, excuse me, very gorgeous), because I am a cool dude ! So, to all of you HATERS out there - STEP OFF ! Maybe you should try and be respectful, kind and gracious towards other people -that may get you appreciated as well ! Now:Most of my life has been a challenge for me, growing up without a father figure (my father died in Vietnam), most of my teenage years without a "real" mother (my mother passed away when I was 13 years old) and therefore I don't expect to have anything GIVEN to me - EVERYTHING MUST BE EARNED ! Life HAS to be earned in order to be appreciated ! Life can take you in many different directions - It is up to YOU if this is to be a positive experience or not !My heritage is a quarter Puerto Rican, a quarter African American, a quarter Yugoslavian and a quarter Czech. I was born and raised in Germany and speak fluent German.After my mother passed away, I was fortunate enough to be adopted at age 14 and my adopted family is responsible for my excellent schooling (Punahou High school)and loving upbringing.I love to travel and discover new places, but prefer doing so only with a female companion. I "escape" to tropical resorts in Hawaii to forget about the mundaneness of life.I love to read, mostly Business Week, Fortune and other Investment related periodicals; however the occasional fiction book has sparked my interest as well (Dan Brown as of late).Will I ever get married ? In this day & age, marriage is a difficult proposition, however, if I were to find an understanding, kind, forgiving, loyal soulmate, I would certainly entertain that possibility, since I love children so much.I value education above almost everything else and have NO patience with people who eschew it.There you have it, ME in a nutshell !Get Your Own! | View Slideshow
