Investing while in College

[Jason Hairston]

Hello all,

So I have been up researching throughout the forum since around 12 am (it's 4 now), and I was thinking about the possibilities of investing while still in college again.
I am a freshman at Stevenson University and the end of our spring semester is May 17th. I will be attending some local Real Estate Investors Meetups just to surround myself with people with the same interests this summer. One of my goals is to have at least 2 properties that are collecting a monthly cash flow by the time I graduate which will be 2018.

Has anyone rented out or invested in property while they were in school? If so, can you describe how you were successful or not so successful??

Thanks in advance, just something that's been on my mind for a few months now...
