Real estate investing fear

[Jordan Bush]

Hi all, 

My name is Jordan and I am very interested in real estate investing but have a small amount of money/knowledge. I recently started my career as a FireFighter/Paramedic--and unfortunately, I don't make much money. Real estate investing has always been appealing to me but fear and the lack of knowledge (in this field) has always stopped me from pursuing it. What advice would you give me? And how would you get started if in my position?
