Hello everyone, I am new to real estate and looking to learn...

Hello everyone, my name is Justin Valedon and I left my job as an intern on Wall St. last year in June to begin a business with my partner. We buy and resell on eBay but when people ask me "so you just sell on eBay?" I say yes, but what I don't tell them is that all I am doing that for is a means to an end. I am 29 years old and as a late bloomer just received an epiphany that time is not waiting for me and that the way this country is going for the average employee, it doesn't look good. But for the entrepreneur and investor the opportunities are limitless. Anyway, I am turned off by Wall St. but what I have noticed is that true wealth is in real estate and in owning your own business. I know it's hard work but listening to the Bigger Pockets podcasts showed me that I could be really good in real estate for I am very hard working, I overcome all obstacles with optimism, I have a strong personality, I am eager, super eager to learn and I am willing to work for free, no matter how much work is required so I can learn from a mentor who is making moves and living a life that people dream of. That being said, I live in Essex County, New Jersey and am willing to do whatever is takes for the mentor who is willing to teach me and create a protege of excellence. Thank you for your time everyone...
