Pablo J. Gutierrez F. III Posted: Tue, Aug 7 2012 8:31 PM

So, here is a brief introduction about myself. My name is Pablo, I'm 22 and I'm from Panama City, Panama. I graduated last year (August) from F.S.U. with two Bachelor's Degrees, one in Finance and the other in Risk Management/Insurance. I also have a minor in Economics. During middle school and highschool I was a socialist. I started college and became a conservative until last year, when I became a libertarian. Since then I've done a bunch of reading and I feel pretty happy and confident with my beliefs. One of my biggest influences is Milton Friedman (I can already sense the heat coming lol) but I also like Hayek and Mises. 

I work at an insurance company during the day but at night I fight statism and socialists. I also write opinion articles for the top newspaper here in Panama, La Prensa. If any of you understand spanish I would appreciate if you could read some of my articles and give me your opinion. I'm happy I finally joined the forum (I was a lurker for a while) and I look forward to enriching and fun discussions.

Welcome

Where there is no property there is no justice; a proposition as certain as any demonstration in Euclid

Fools! not to see that what they madly desire would be a calamity to them as no hands but their own could bring
