How did you know when to start?

[Nikki Beall]

Total newbie here. Recently, I've been waiting to make the jump to owning my first rental. I stumbled upon biggerpockets (kudos Brandon on those youtube videos!!) and realize there are aspects of REI that never occurred to me. So now I'm soaking up all the information within this site educating myself. My question is how did you know you were ready to make that first purchase?

@Nikki Beall I knew it was time when I was at the point where I was no longer learning any more from reading books. I knew that the only education I could learn from was experience.
