I’m looking for advice and some help as a 19 year old trying to step into real estate

[Alex Sotelo]

Im a 19 year old living in New York with some roommates and my girlfriend, I don’t spend too much on a unnecessary purchases and try to limit my spending. I currently work a job that pays about 18$/hr and I’m interested in learning how to acquire and grow passive income but have no basis. I’ve only recently tried to start reading about finances but still feel like I’m unsure on next steps. I’ve looked into MLM, and affiliate marketing as other sources of income but I’m really interested in Real Estate seeing as my small experience with the stock market was a bit confusing to say the least. I’ve looked into programs like lifestyles unlimited but am a bit hesitant since I don’t make a lot of money after taxes and expenses are said and done. So if anyone has any suggestions or help to offer Im open ears. I’ve been ideally looking into some sort of mentor ship but have no one around who has experience with those things.
