Exciting Time To Be Alive!

After hearing about this project throughout the inter-webs, followed by a fair amount of research, the potential success for everyone involved with this platform was just too much to not take part of. I have acquired my wealth throughout the years building businesses both privately and with the State of California, and I can say, without hesitation, that this is the most excited I have been over a business venture.

I have browsed over the interaction on several threads with veteran and "newbie" users, from all over the world, with a single goal of seeing this project flourish and working together, a mentality much of the world desperately needs in modern times.

However, without getting too far of track, this post is an introduction, so let me focus on that for the time being.

Introducing Me

My name is Jacob Anthony Billett and I currently reside in Elm Creek, Nebraska. I was born in Sacramento, California and grew up in the wilderness of northern California (Yes, there is still land, trees, and wildlife up there). Upon successfully surviving until my 18th birthday (make some poor decisions as a teenager), I decided to join the US Army as a Cavalry Scout (19D) and completed my OSUT (One Station Unit Training) in Fort Knox, Kentucky. From there I deployed overseas in Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom, coming home from my last tour and honorably discharged in 2011.

From there I worked in sales and finance for Ford Motor Company and attended college, successfully obtaining my Master's Degree in Business Administration and Human Resources Management. With the knowledge and status obtained with my degree, I build a successful online retail network and began working for the State of California in business services as a Local Veteran Employment Representative, and later promoted to a Staff Services Analyst for the State of California, Community Services and Development.

Becoming a CEO

In 2016, my private venture company became so successful that I resigned from the state and formed Billett Enterprises, Inc., specializing in online retail markets, financial services,business services and venture capital investments. Today we have multiple operations under our umbrella, recently branching out into real estate and heavy transportation.

What I Do With The Little Spare Time I Have

My hobbies include bodybuilding and power lifting, with a brief stint in pro arena football as a defensive lineman for the Kearney Hawks in Kearney, Nebraska. When I'm not hitting the weights or in pads, I love to fish and get back to my roots away from the chaos of the city.

Giving Back

I believe that I have reached a point in my life to where I need to contribute and mentor new entrepreneurs, young or old, and use my knowledge, resources and experience to help them in reaching their goals. With this growing network, the highly active community, and the current explosion ans attractiveness of crypto-currency, I believe it is a perfect storm to launch my latest venture and put some good back into a world that has been so good to me.
