New Air Force investor: where do I start?

[Jonah Cervantes]

I know how commonplace this kind of post is, but I am here to reach out for anyone’s help on where to get started.

I’m avidly reading and listening to the podcast, so those habits are in place. However I do want to get active connecting with others and hear their personal experience, and I figured I would start here!

I’m 24, just recently got my first big-boy job that should cover my living expenses, and barely have anything in the bank. I want to start out by owning small multi-family’s and eventually owning large commercial buildings!

I’m here to find out how I can provide value, how I can serve my future tenants’ needs with top-notch housing and management, provide for my family’s future, and live free of the employer’s yoke!

If you are reading this, can you let me know how you got your first foothold in this industry? What’s a great way I can provide value or service to an established investor? 
Thank you!
