Getting my feet wet in this market

[Michael Din]

I want to get into the market and get something going before i sit on this to long and never make any moves. one big problem is everyone states use other peoples money....how do you do that? i have about 100k in a heloc i can pull from at anytime to start my investing but i want to be sure i cant use other means first? i have little to no cash on hand. I can't find a mentor to ask questions to in my area! this stuff is driving me crazy lol but i am seriously interested in starting this adventure. the saddest part is i have read books and watch numerous podcasts and still i am just as puzzled as i was in the beginning...

Also as a side note what comes first? should i contact a broker before i look for deals or look for deals and a broker simultaneously?
