Good Afternoon Everyone!

My name is Chris and I live in Denver, CO. I will be graduating college in the spring and I am wanting to get started in real estate investment for two reasons. First I feel that I am still young enough to be less conservative with retirement "money" and if I do lose it all I still have some time to recover. Secondly, when I do get an "adult" job I don't feel necessary to follow the norm and invest it in a 401k where I don't have too much input on how whether or not that money makes me more money in the long run! 

I have zero experience in the field except from what I hear them talk about on the pod cast but hope to learn a lot from everyone. After listening to the pod casts one of the thing I hear a lot is having an idea of what you want before you jump into the market. It seems like a good balance of rental homes (steady cash flow) and side projects like home flips and wholesale (one time cash flows) would be a decent way to earn supplemental income.

Well glad to be apart of the site now and hope to learn a lot and one day earn a coveted spot being interviewed by Brandon and Josh on the pod cast!
