Hi all, I have been reading books and watching every seminar possible to prepare myself to invest in real estate (I believe I am addicted to the process). I know the only way I will be able to fully grasp the process and understand how people become successful while doing it is to see how it happens first hand, or do it myself. Here's the problem with that, I am only 18 and have not graduated high school although I will be graduating in 3 months. I have been accepted into a residential carpentry apprenticeship that starts mid summer and I will be making some where between $18-$22 an hour (I am not sure this is the path I want to take yet). Will this be enough to began my path of real estate investing? I guess I am asking what successful RE people like yourselves would do in my shoes. Go study something in college that would help me in the long run? Get my RE license? Don't start investing until I have completed my apprenticeship? Thanks for the help. Greatly appreciated.
