Newbie or should I say Wannabe

I am currently a traveling nurse by day. My plan is to spend this 1st quarter investing in myself with books/podcast. I'm months away from being debt free and then I plan on hitting the ground running. Still debating on my niche but currently renting, flipping, & wholesaling is at the top is at the top of my list. Any advice or encouragement would be much apprectiated.

@Candice Ravin Woodfin, buy a personal residence that you can house hack and rent out while you're traveling for work. Honestly, this is one of the easier ways to get started in real estate especially if you are currently renting. You can acquire the property for a lower down payment and your rates/terms will be more favorable than an investment loan. As you continue to educate yourself, pay down any outstanding debt you owe, save religiously, continue to build your credit, and start networking with local investors in your market. Hope this helps!
