Fourteen years old and wondering what steps I should start taking
Hey folks, I was first introduced to the idea of real estate investing about 6 months ago, and I very much so liked the sound of it. However, being only a child, I couldn't do anything except read a few free books I'd found. I'm in tenth grade, and plan on going to university, so I have plenty of time to figure things out. My main questions are whether my college major should be a "Plan B" just in case real estate investing doesn't work out, or if I should go all in and major in something like finance or business? Also, many, many people say "They wish they started younger," and being fourteen, I want to start young. What can I be doing right now to prepare myself and learn the basics of real estate investing?
I apologize if the format of this thread is incorrect, or if I am too young to be posting on this site.
