About Buddy:
Buddy Rushing is a former Marine Officer and a 2004 graduate of the United States Naval Academy where he earned a degree in Aerospace Engineering (if you can believe it). During his 16 years in the Marine Corps, he traveled around the world, leading Marines in training operations in Okinawa, Thailand, Philippines, South Korea, Guam and Bridgeport, as well as four deployments to Southeast Asia and Afghanistan.
His passion for Real Estate investing began by reading Rich Dad Poor Dad while leaning against a Humvee in Southeastern Afghanistan. That quickly spiraled into an impulsive decision to buy an overpriced, beat-up, piece of crap house in 29 Palms in June of 2007 then invest every penny he had in a FULL remodel that he did almost entirely with his own sweat and tears…only to find out two years later that his fully remodeled house was worth half what he paid for it two years earlier.
Out of that mistake came a ten year stretch of endless education, late hours, tons of offers, dozens of different types of deals, and finally the idea that sparked what White Feather Investments has become today. He brought his access to Turnkey investments together with his passion for Education and his savage loyalty to his brothers and sisters in uniform, and the result has been the explosive growth of a community unlike any others…where his vision of creating an entire generation of financially free military members is finally coming to life!
White Feather Investments is dedicated to educating and empowering military members to achieve financial freedom through Real Estate investing. In less than two years, he has grown their membership to over 450 active duty and former military members.
