hey everyone , you know me as herlis but my real name is Edward but you can still call
me herlis , im from the Philippines. Actually herlis is short for herlisfood and Herlisfood
Products is our businessname here in the Philippines , our factory makes "tofu and soya
milk" but our main product is really in between tofu and soya milk meaning - from soy beans
it becomes soya milk and then we mix food hardener with soya milk and it becomes our
product we call " Taho " you mix taho with a syrup thats really sugar w/ water and people
here loves eating taho for breakfast or anytime of the day , by the way we have more
than 200 vendors selling taho for us. So from soy beans it becomes taho and taho
becomes tofu. Our business have been running more than 20 years alreay and since i was
around 13 years old i have been helping my parents run the business of course same time
while studying. I play basketball since i was 10 yrs. old and later i learned to play Jai-alai
and was an amateur player and i wanted to play as a professional Pelotari (jai-alai player)
i even went to Miami florida and played there only to experience playing there but i really
wanted to play here in manila cause Jai-alai games here are mostly fixed and money comes
so easy but they closed the Jai-alai after the people power revolution cause it was owned
by the Marcoses. Now here at my home i also have my own business just a small canteen.
I have an 8 year old daughter and i was never married. Most of the time im just online
poker but not too much now think im getting bored playing or maybe i play too much , so i
go out and gamble at the casinos once in a while, i really do like gambling , i've been
gambling since i was 13. I even went to Atlantic city 4 time when i was in the US didnt win
there. Right now im really busy taking care of my daughter besides gambling and nothing
else.
