Reuben is 76 years old and was born in New York. His parents separated when he was 10 years old. After the separation, Reuben and his mother moved to California to live with his sister. He graduated from Aviation High School in Redondo Beach, California and he spent 2 years at El Camino College. Reuben joined the Naval Air Force when he was 18 years old and served for a few years. He was honorably discharged after he was diagnosed with medical issues that prevented him from continuing to serve.
After being discharged, Reuben worked as a bellman for 22 ½ years until his physical disability worsened and prevented him from working in physically demanding fields. Although some would feel defeated by this, Reuben didn’t give up. He began studying to become a paralegal and a licensed real estate agent. In 2000, Reuben reached his goal and began a relatively successful real estate career. For 8 years, he worked hard to build his business and his savings. Unfortunately, when the real estate market crashed in 2008 it had a great impact on Reuben. He lost everything. In an attempt to try and rebuild his life, Reuben began staying with various family members until he moved to Las Vegas in 2014.
In his new home, Reuben loves playing chess, watching movies and doing legal research.
