Welcome to the club! I'm relatively new as well and having been there, I would advise you of a few things:
- KEYWORD ALERTS. Go to your ACCOUNT page (upper right corner), then on the left hand side click on FORUMS and then click on KEYWORD ALERTS. You can set up an alert on words that you want to know about. Maybe set something up for wholesale and see what is out there. (that might generate too much volume though) Play around with keyword alerts, they are cool. Use the search functionality of the forums as well.
- IGNORE THE NEGATIVE. I've found the guru bashing a little too much. Also, I feel wholesalers get a bad rap because "new people think it is too easy" so I get to listen to a lot of people complaining about it and lumping me as a n00b into the same group. Unless you have the time to read and consume every post, just use your time wisely and skip over the bashing if you can. Don't get caught up defending anything.
- PODCAST - check out the BP podcast. Great content overall. I would start at #1 and listen to the present.
- NETWORK, find your local REIA or BP meet ups and attend.
Good luck!
