New from Massachusetts

[Emily Sulliban]

Hey everyone.
My name is Emily. I live in Massachusetts. I'm 20. I'm overly-ambitious, and when I set my mind to something there's no turning back- no matter the amount of work that lies in front of me. I suspect most of us here are alike in that aspect.

I'm starting college this year and majoring in architecture. I work at a home improvement store. Though this isn't exactly relevant, I'm also in the process of setting up an informative website and hopefully forum for freshwater aquarium hobbysists.

Everything about building and design interests me. Everything about business interests me. Everything about the real estate market intimidates me!

It seems there is no real "first topic" to learn or "first question" to ask when learning about real estate investing. Whenever I read an article, I end up with 10 questions that need to be answered in order to fully grasp what I have just read, and each question leads to ten more questions that need to be answered in order to properly answer one of the questions in the first set of 10 questions........ etcetera. Basically, I'm overwhelmed with all there is to learn about investing and the real estate market in general!

I joined this site with the hopes of slowly accumulating enough knowledge over time from experienced investors to be comfortable enough in what I've learned to one day go out and make a smart first investment.

Nice to meet everyone:)
