New investor, Introducing myself

[Jeremy Howard]

Hey everyone! I've already made a couple of posts but I figured I'd come and introduce myself as well.

My name is Jeremy Howard I'm a new investor from Springfield Illinois. When I first started looking into getting into real estate it was for the more passive income that being a real estate investor has. But I started listening to the BiggerPockets podcast and it kind of sparked something in me that I never knew was there, that's one of my reason changed and instead of only wanting the passive income I also started to want to make a name for myself and have something that I could pass down to my kids one day. this community of people is unlike anything I've ever seen so big shout-out to the people from BiggerPockets. the amount of information that I have gained from not only listening to the podcast but reading the forms as well gave me a ton more confidence and information that I think I would've had if I had not found this community. my goal is that in five years time I have enough investment properties to be able to stop working the current full-time job I am at now and move fully to real estate. Thank you for your time and I can't wait to talk with you all.
