Hello, Looking to change my life

[Harken Maguire]

Hi everyone I am new to BiggerPockets and real estate. I hold a degree in finance and am working towards an MBA so I am not totally clueless. I recently gave up a dream job traveling the world as a snowboard instructor because my student debt was getting out of control. I am sitting at my corporate job looking for anyway to get back to that. 

I will take anything you have to offer: advice, connections, opportunities, assignments, you name it.

I look forward to getting to know the community.

@Clark Kirkpatrick

Thanks for the awesome response. Buy and hold rentals has been the strategy that appeals to me the most. I am looking into multi family places that I could live in and rent out the other units.

@Justin Windham thank you for the resources and information. I’ll be using those links

@Jack Butala thank you for the well wishes. I hope your success grows exponentially. 

@Scott Mac student debt is not something that goes away very easily. The problem was that I was making very little money as an instructor and need supplemental income. My MBA is paid for by my employer. I beg to differ that a financial education is useless in investing.
