College student in Madison, Wisconsin - ready to take first step
Hi all,
I am currently a college student in Madison, Wisconsin, and have been interested in REI for the last couple of years. I would love make my first investment before graduating, but am unsure how to go about it. I think the first step for me will be to start building a team (attorney, accountant, broker, etc.) and go from there. If anyone can offer some advice, I would greatly appreciate it!
Excited to get started in the near future!
Matt
