Lurking in BP from Houston, TX.

[Josue Guzman]

Hello everyone!

My name is Josue Guzman. I graduated from the University of Houston with a degree in mathematics (mostly out of love for the subject) not really knowing what I wanted in life. After a few months working for a local insurance company, I came to realize (like many others here) that working for someone else would never take me where I want to be. 

That's when I decided to look for options. No matter from how many angles I look at it, real estate seems so logical, and so I've decided to start learning about it. I signed up with BP, bought books, started reading and downloaded the podcasts which I now listen to in my car. For now I think I want to start with flipping even if it's not in the Houston area.  

I had not bothered to introduce myself before because I thought I didn't have much to offer to the community. Besides, I'm getting married this year and that's where my money and focus is currently going. However, it just occurred to me that I might have something to contribute after all. My stepfather is a carpenter and has been working in the craft for over 15 years. I'll post more about it in the Marketplace forum.

I'm not sure what to do other than keep reading and listening for now but I'm open to suggestions.

Have a nice day.
