Frank from Miami!

Hi Bigger Pockets Community,

My name is Frank and I am a junior in college studying Accounting. I am in the middle of deciding whether to jump into real estate full time or go into accounting full time. I just listened to Podcast #3 and the amount of information I just absorbed is insane. I ran into this site trying to learn a few things about wholesaling. Although i'm still not sure what I want to do within real estate, I've always found it very interesting. I'm currently reading "The Millionaire Real Estate Agent" and find it to be very inspiring. 

One of my short term goals is to be able to shadow a professional real estate investor in order to gain as much first hand experience as possible. I enjoy the idea of being an investor in today's market but I need to start some somewhere; which is why i'm here. Any suggestions?

Hello @Frank N. Welcome to BP!  You can find some meetings at meetup.com

The meetings I'm most familiar with is BREIA and DREIA and I believe @Account Closed runs a weekly investment meeting.  All of these meetings are a great source to talk with people in the industry and pick their brain about how they operate.  Please feel free to message me with any questions you might have also.  Good luck!
