Investor from New Jersey

Greetings!

I've taken a few seminars on real estate and read a few books but theory is different from experience. Can someone help point me to the right direction since I want to start investing in real estate possibly start off in wholesaling and work myself to other strategies? Anyone here willing to help? I've been thinking about enrolling in an education package on real  estate which brings me to the Catch 22 scenario-- not having enough cash/cash flow to invest in an education to start with-- but knowing that real estate might be a vehicle for me to start earning a second stream of income. I'm planning on investing in real estate as a secondary source of income. I have spare time after work and during the weekends to work on deals. 

Thank you!
