I appreciate the wise words. I planned to stay for a very very long time. Please bear with me.

@Ali Boone. I can't spend all my savings before I even invest. Why pay $10,000 for one opinion, while you can get multiple opinions here for $0?

@Jay Hinrichs Yes finding the right coach is key. I believe there are good people here who are willing share their knowledge and not all about business. I wish I started early like you and a lot of people did here. No regrets tho.

Thank you for all the inputs and encouragement. I will definitely take action when I feel equipped. Knowing that there are real people who made it without a mentor really encourages me to become one of you one day. I'm ready to take my first baby step. 

@Sharad M (How can have this "@Sharad M" highlighted so the person will get a notification for the mention) 

As far as techniques, I'm thinking wholesaling then rental when I'm in a better shape financially. I'm starting out from scratch. I'm still in the learning process. But in won't be long till I jump and make my first mistake on the field lol. But I'll make sure I know everything about wholesaling and rental in theory before jumping in.

@Jeremy Tillotson What do you mean by getting a course from someone? Isn't that the same as paying a guru?

Thank you for giving me the link to this inspiring story Jerry. I wish I was into building wealth when I was your age. I'm 12 yrs older than you. And I'm just about to start REI. What have I been doing right?

If you don't mind me asking about the first house you bought.

How did you buy your first 4 bedroom house right out of high school? Savings?

How much was the rent each room and how much was the mortgage a month?

Did those 4 guys know each other before they became house mate? 

Thank you for all the replies and the welcoming. I feel that I'm not gonna be in this all by myself after all :). 

I'm here to learn, build friendships and hopefully help others when I know what I'm doing. And I'm here to stay.

Btw, by "mentor" I meant someone who's willing to teach in exchange for thousands of dollars upfront and a bunch of other undisclosed fees during the program. I like the idea of splitting profits. But I can't be spending all my savings before I even start.

I'll try to be as active as I can on BP. So, please be nice ok? :)

Hi. I'm a newbie. I'm wondering if anyone here on BP has been successful for a long period of time without a mentor. I know from reading articles that it is possible learn the whole thing yourself through books and whatnot. But I'd like to see if a real person here on BP is successful in this field by teaching themselves. Please share your stories. Thank you.
