My name is Manuel Balian and I am Armenian, a Christian (non denominational), conservative (I love MAGA), & a veteran U.S. Air Force 90-94. I am interested in politics, sports, the stock market (investing), options trading, hard money brokering, and Christianity. I believe America is the greatest nation and I am thankful for the many blessings she bestows on me daily. 

I believe in the maxim “All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.” I have a bachelor's degree in Political Science, (Univ. of Maryland) and a Master’s in Accounting & Financial Management (Keller Graduate School of Management). I am originally from New Orleans. I listen to classical music, love pasta/pizza, In-N-Out Burger, Chick-fil-A, seafood, steak, kabob, & BBQ. I currently reside in Southern California.
