Friends. Times are tough. If this blog helped you out in even the smallest of ways, could you chip in below? I could really use the help. You can email me at torres.fjr@gmail.com with any questions.
Thank you.





Hello everyone,

I’m currently going through a tough period in my life. I’ve been a struggling veteran in the housing crisis for a few years now, and currently have nothing save for this blog.

Before, I was a successful political and media personality in the Orlando market for over a decade. It almost feels like a different life when I think about it. Prior to that, I served in the United States Army all over the world. It was the greatest honor of my life.

I don’t know what the future holds. I dream that things were different but I wake up to my sad reality everyday. I’m losing and I’m hurt. But I have to keep going and hope things will improve.

Thank you for taking the time to read this. You can read about ways to help HERE. Even a couple of kind words would make a great difference.

Thank you,
