Newbie Born and Raised in Jersey City, NJ

[Adiel Arvizu]

Here is a laundry list of info about me:

• Name: Adiel Arvizu 
• Background in real estate: Parents have been landlords for years I have been trying to pick up on the trade.
• Where I am from: Jersey City, NJ
• Occupation: Full-time substitute teacher, avid biker
• Goals for real estate: Just download this
• How I came to join BiggerPockets: I read Rich Dad Poor Dad and after some weaving I found BiggerPockets, bought some of their books, bookmarked some of the important stuff when I read, and I'm in the process of editing the necessary papers so I can have everything ready. Now I have taken the next mini step by posting openly for the most part about myself here.
• Additional things: I believe the reason most people don't pull the trigger including myself is because of the risk and lack of funds to risk. I want to alleviate that fear and I want to get my feet wet. So how can I do all these things? I don't desire to be a wantapreneur but an entrepreneur.

If you guys have any questions about me please let me know otherwise hopefully I can transition from reading about people doing deals to actually doing these deals myself.
