When should I start real estate investing? Currently 15/yrs old

[Noah Norton]

Hey, I am wondering at what age I should start investing in real estate and how to do so? I'm 15 years old right now and going to university in one year. My general plan was so attend Liberty University in Virginia for 4 years, majoring in Finance. Ideally, I would start wholesaling in my third year of college, when I turn 18, and then start wholesaling full time after graduating, until I have the capital to flip houses.

However, Virginia doesn't seem to be the best state for wholesaling. My University is 3 and a half hours away from Virginia Beach, and I won't be able to afford a car in college.

Now, the only reason I make this thread, is that everyone always says "they wish they started earlier." I don't want to graduate from college with no money, and have wasted 4 years of my life. Ideally, I want to wholesale full-time right out of college.

What advise can experienced real estate investors give me? And what should I be doing before college, during college, and after graduating from college?
