Thinking of taking a home inspection course to inspect as a side hustle to build capital? Is this a good move?

@Douglas T.

Thank you for the encouragenent and information. Funny, a couple decades ago when I decided to quit smoking I employed a similar tactic. I'd say to those that I knew that smoked, "You're a smoker?!?" Their response was, "I thought you smoked?" I told them no, that I'd quit. They'd ask when on that first day and I'd say yesterday. They'd roll their eyes, of course. I was trying to fill my head with a fact that I wanted to be true. Speaking like that about RE Investing might be a good idea. Thank you!

 There's the rub. Find a mentor. So I just head out to the local real estate investor mentor store... I don't exactly know where to start. My sarcasm is intended for fun, not a dig, for the record...

Thank you! When you say a meet up, if I'm searching online, what exactly would the search terms be?

Ok, I'm a single father of 2 looking to refashion my future for my family. I've been listening to the bigger pockets podcast for a while now, but I'm clueless as to how to start real estate investing, particularly in raising funds. Any advice? Resources?

@Nicholas Connell hey man, I just figured it out. Sorry for asking without actually looking into really. Thanks for the idea!

@Nicholas Connell I checked that link, but it appears they're looking for professionals in the field, do you know of a way to get involved without being a performer/narrator?
