Advice for a 20 year old that is jumping into real estate

My name is Kenneth and I am a 20 year old from Indiana. I just recently bought a home for 57000 and put 10% down. I then spent about 10,000 on a new roof and complete bathroom rehab. My savings were pretty much exhausted after this. I am currently on a deployment through the national guard and am expecting to return home with about 10,000 dollars. I am considering getting my real estate license. I told myself I was going to pay off my current house early but now am debating if I should save up for my next deal. I really want to get a rental property but I dont have a ton of cash flow(I work at Lowes).  Im just trying to soak in and learn all I can so any advice or insight would be much appreciated!
