Just Starting to Rap my Mind around Real Estate

[Samantha Bruce]

     Hello everyone, my name is Samantha Bruce I currently live in the beautiful state of Michigan, city Grand Rapids. For acouple months now I have been pondering ways I can make some money in mylife. Being a 22 year old women with very few people in mylife to look up to, I decided to take a step back and look at the options the world has to offer me. 

I have been listening to motivational speakers and listening to what their strategies are on money and how to make it big. I now am realizing that even if I put 100 dollars into my savings account every week, I still wont become a millionaire. Which being one is not my goal, my goal is to make enough money where I can be comfortable. 

Then I came across biggerpockets recently, and it sparked an interest. I worked for Lowes home improvment for 3 years and when I was working there I spoke with so many people and how they flip houses or have appartment complexes that they rent out. Ultimately, real estate is something I have always been interested in but never took action on that interest untill now. Creating a Bigger Pockets profile is my first step into real estate for me and I am beyond excited for what has yet to come. 

Please excuse me on not being educated on real estate yet and posting, but right now I see this as a good opportunity to gain some knowledge. So if anyone is willing to give me some advice on how I can get started or even a story on how you got where you are would be fantastic! Thank you for the opportunity Bigger Pockets!
