Another new young guy :)

Hello everyone! My name is Sean and I'm brand new to real estate. I'm 22 years old... I have been married for almost 5 months... My wife and I have no kids and I am Active Duty Army (Sergeant E-5) with 4 years in and 4 years left to go.

I got involved in real estate about 3 weeks ago. Besides being in the Army, I'm an independent associate with PrePaid Legal Services, inc. I'm a Director in that business pushing to qualify for Executive Director (for those of you who know the business). Though I love that business, it isn't my ticket to financial freedom. It introduced me to self-developement which i really appreciate. In reading "Rich Dad Poor Dad" i realized that I was part of the "rat race" that Robert Kiyosaki speaks about. I drew up my income statement and balance sheet one day and realized that I have absolutely no assets to work for me. At that time, I fully understood that nothing would change for me until my cashflow learned to take a different path.

So I slowed down on prepaid legal and went for bigger checks. I'm starting out with wholesaling houses so that I can quickly build up my asset column. This is where I will start and by the time I'm down I hope to have a real estate business on auto-pilot. I'm also a member of Z28.com and they brought me from not knowing anything about cars to being a muscle car guru. Now I hope you all can help me do the same thing in the real estate field!!!
