I am new to forums, at I on the right track?
Im 23, single, just moved out my mothers house for the first on my own and learned about BP. I’m currently saving up at my warehouse job. Staying on top of bills, building credit. I learned so much these past few days about financial education. I bought an BP book, “How to invest in real estate”. I read it everyday, when I’m at work on break or spare time I read the ebook on my phone. I read over where I left off, so when I’m home I’m reading over what I read when I was out that day at work. Seeing it twice is helping. But am I taking the right moves in order to be successful in real estate? Consistently. I know it’s a process. You got to start from the seed, to get to the root, to get to the fruit. Can’t plant the seed one day and expect to eat the fruit the next day. Thank you. I’m fairly new. So any experienced investors please comment your stories how you got into real estate, and how it changed your life.

Yup you are on track. When you start, all you can do is read/educate a ton and stock pile cash for when you're ready to buy that first property. Ultimate house hack is to move back in when your mother haha.
