New investor with cash

[Sophia Maler]

I'm new to the world of investment. My goal is to break free from the "cubical nation" by learning real estate investment game. I looked at lien certificates and deed investments. I need some help understanding how to pick the investment strategy based on the amount of cash available and income goal? My initial goal is generating 2 to 4K a month. Is this realistic for a newbie? How much cash I need to achieve this goal?
