Hi Everyone,
My name is Will Lavallee, I previously frequented thefastlaneforum.com, left to refocus on university, and recently read MJ's book upon recommitting myself to entrepreneurial aspirations. When I picked up, "The Millionaire Fastlane ," I couldn't put it down. I read the whole book over the coarse of a day, and then I read it again over another week. I found it to be refreshing, insightful, and overall a great contribution to entrepreneurs everywhere. After reading the book twice over, following my gut to pursue entrepreneurial aspirations, I am happy to return. I've been away for quite a while, and see many more contributing members, so I think it's a good idea to introduce myself again.
For those of you who don't know or remember me, I am a Canadian undergraduate studying Finance at the University of Northern British Columbia. This past summer I interned at a New York based boutique investment bank, which provides financing and strategic advisory services to Fortune 500 corporations and private equity funds. During the internship I participated in leveraged buyout, merger and acquisition transactions in the healthcare, technology, manufacturing, and mining sectors as an investment banking analyst. I also conducted valuation analysis and provided equity research for a client at a hedge fund. Through this experience I developed a practical skill set and furthered my understanding of corporate strategy, development, and finance. I am presently contracted as a proprietary trader (increasing my net worth, developing a track record as a portfolio manager/investor) and freelancing at another investment bank (I am still learning lots, background in corporate advisory could be beneficial, developing a great network through this experience). Over the next few months I hope to find a position as a commercial real estate broker while continuing to prop trade and freelance as an analyst. Going forward I am pursuing a career as an entrepreneur in the real estate industry. I am especially interested in real estate investment and development, and recently completed real estate syndication plans. I am excited to learn from other entrepreneurs' past experiences and will reciprocate by drawing on my developing technical skill set and knowledge as an analyst and entrepreneur.
All the best,
Will Lavallee
