That's juicy girl debt.

Are you aware of how unethical/immoral it is to unknowingly expose him to that much debt through marriage?

Just curious CC, how long have you been in Korea? Did you make your cash here through work, or through real estate investments here or back home?

When I came to Korea 6 years ago I had 35k debt and zero assests.

Working and investing has gotten me to this point.

What were your big winners investment wise. That's a hell of a lot of return in a short time. Although, I'm guessing you must have been socking away 4,000,000 won a month from the get-go, and probably more per month progressively.

I started in a hogwon, so the first few years were... less profitable. Since then I've been working steading and invested in realestate here in Korea.

My goal is to have a min 500K (and maximum?? maybe a mil) by the time I turn 40 (I'm 33 now). I figure that will allow for what I call a soft retirement = working because I want to, not because I need to.


All that being said htough, 1 month ago I had my first child (ok the wife helped in that), and man are they ever expensive! lol

Thank you summercamps!

I just got a 20K student loan, but I have zero debt because I'm not gonna pay it back! Thank you Stephen Harper.
