Best Ways for REI to start out with no financial means and bad credit

[Michel Cajuste]

I am new to REI and am determined to learn more everyday. I have a big family and the breadwinner for my family so that restricts my finances. Also, my credit is not in good shape. However, I am in the process of repairing my credit and eliminating any expenses that are not needed. I am also attending webinars as well as reading books recommended to bring up my knowledge. Anyone have great advice or a path to take for starters in my situation?
