Ridley Marcel Atras
Palos Verdes, California
Ridley Atras lived for a decade on the left side of the globe, and another decade on the right. The rest of the years were spent traveling in between. He speaks English, Korean, Spanish, and Chinese.
He was a spoiled, obnoxious brat until about when he became 20; then he encountered severe financial distress and realized that the world was a tougher place to live than it had seemed.
After dabbling in bits of everything including entrepreneurship, teaching, politics, military service, and various other jobs (without success), Ridley has become a professional in rejection and failure, and is now a part time web designer/blogger.
