New to BiggerPockets - Excited to be here from WI

[Matt Cariello]

Hello all,

I just wanted to pop in and say that I am new here and really excited to have found BiggerPockets. What a great resource! I can already tell that I will be spending a lot of time here.

A bit about me:
I am 22, I graduate business school one month from now, and have just recently accepted a broker's role in the commercial real estate firm I currently Intern at. I am very excited about my new job as a broker, however, I eventually want to ween off of brokerage and become a full-time investor (is that what many of you here are?). I have managed my own investments (mostly stocks) for the last 5ish years or so and have done pretty good for myself, but I now want to get into real estate investing as well in order to a) round off my portfolio and b) do what I'm passionate about!

I am very dedicated, very business minded/orientated (my mind is always spinning with ideas and ways to improve), but most of all, I am a great learner... And that's exactly why I joined BP - I want to learn as much as possible from you wonderful people and I can't wait to get to know some of you guys/gals a bit better!

Thanks much,

Matt
