Starting early in real estate
I am 18 and in high school, and I know real estate investing is what I'm passionate about I've been reading books and have been obsessed with is for a couple years now. But I don't know where to get started so my big question is would it be beneficial to get a degree in business or is it better to join the workforce and get capital ASAP?

If you want to get a property ASAP I would become a contractor or electrician or plumber. They are in high demand, you'd make good money, you can start your own business, and you can do work on your properties yourself. If you want to go to college I'd choose a school that would minimize student loan debt and pick a major that has high pay with few hours. Having a high W2 makes scaling a lot easier.
