Where to begin

[Luke Okane]

       Hello, my name is Luke O'Kane and I am a current senior in high school. I have been interested in real estate investing for a few years now and have done a lot of personal research from listening to podcasts, reading books, learning simple comp skills, and being an intern this past summer. I have large ambitions to begin my own portfolio in the near-ish future and was wondering what you guys would do if you were in my shoes to best prepare me to be an eventual investor. Thank you so much and happy holidays.
