College Investing... Recommended?

[Brock Hoffman]

I am 21 years old currently in college for civil engineering. I have one year left before I receive my bachelor's degree. I have been reading, researching, attending webinars, attempting to analyze properties and much much more. I started learning about real estate for the first time in January of 2017 and I can't get enough. I am to the point where I want to invest so badly, but there are nerves that tell me, if I screw up and lose all my money, what will happen with college. I should just hold off, finish my last year of college, start working, and then invest on the side until I can obtain enough passive income to retire. Should I wait!? Should I go for it?? I am from Jackson, MI, however I am working a few hours north on an internship this summer. I would love to hear from anyone. I am willing to meet new people and learn from others. If you started investing in college, I would love love love to hear from you! 

Thank you in advance :)
