Hey, I'm Richie and I like to watch marvel and star wars movies, motivational youtube videos and anime. I'm also into personal development, law of attraction, entrepreneurship, finance, spirituality(meditation, reincarnation, karma, etc).

I enjoy learning useful, practical, interesting things. I enjoy solitude and enjoy my privacy but I also like to socialize at times too. It's about balance for me.

I've been told a few times that I look similar to the international dj steve aoki. I've never met him though but had a chance to see him at omnia and lollapalooza.

I walked by sylvester stallone before in beverly hills on the sidewalk and he was wearing his expendables black beret outfit.

I've met some youtubers like frank yang, piper rockelle's aunt, joshpalerlin, funkbros, Luis mercado, timothydelaghetto and vitalyzdtv.

I've got a pretty good handle of holistic health, natural healing, natural remedies, how to cure health issues, self help, etc. I've done research and a good amount of reading for over a decade. Knowledge can pay off in the long run.

I've read up on a multitude of metaphysical and esoteric subjects including "out there" stuff. I'm familiar with many of the "interesting" subjects out there.

I'm very much a minimalist these days and I'm pretty nomadic. I walk a lot and enjoy a nice yoga workout when I can. I like marvel themed tv shows.

I've lived in a few different places:
dallas, texas
san francisco bay area
orange county, ca
Los angeles
Las Vegas
Chicagoland IL
St. Augustine FL
Orlando FL
Tampa bay FL
Seoul, south Korea
