I am 17 years old, and I want to get into real estate investing. I have most of the knowledge of a beginner and could really use that extra guidance to make sure I am focusing on the right things and making good decisions. If there is anyone on here that does 1 on 1 coaching or knows of someone, please reach out to me. Aside from that, there are many other things I'd would like professional advice on like stock trading, and home service business scaling that I am interested in using to build the funds for succesful real estate investing. In summary I need a mentor.

Thanks for the advice!

 Thanks for your response! What books would you recommend? How much does trade school cost and how many years would I have to attend? What kind of contracting professions are there?

Thank you for your feedback! I have 130 favorites and around 20-30 recommendations on my NextDoor business page. I have been building it for the past 3 years. I hired my first employee just this weekend. I do love it, but I would love it even more if I could own it, make money from it, and not have to work for it. How do I find people that are interested in house hacking? I am interested in being a real estate investor, is that what you mean by "being an agent"?

 Thanks for the feedback! What degrees in college would assist and build my education in real estate investing?

 I like the way you think, thank you for the feedback! What things should I look up or get more information on if I were interested in a W2 job?

Thank you for your feedback! How can I use this platform to learn? What do you recommend I do here to get the most value?

I am 17 years old, I have no debt, and I live rent free with my parents. I have $10,500 to my name and want to invest it and put my money to work; however, I don't mind spending a few dollars on a reliable course or towards my financial education. Not sure if this is necessary but I have my own landscaping business that I work for making me self-employed or in the "S-quadrant" of "The Cashflow Quadrant". I am here seeking professional advice from someone who has walked the walk and can guide me where to go from here.

Some of my goals are listed below:

My main goal at the moment is to find assistance in forming a financial plan with the help of a mentor.

My other goals once I have established a plan:

- Short Term: "I will obtain a cash flowing real estate property within the next year.

- Long term:  "I will have more than or about 5-10 cashflow producing assets making me 5-10k a month in profit. 

Some questions I have once I find a reliable mentor are:

- What is the best way I can invest my money?

- Should I go to college part time? What are the advantages and disadvantages of going to college or not going to college for someone in my situation?

- Any feedback on my goals? Any goal setting strategies that helped you?

- What are the benefits of a real estate license? Do I need one? Should I get one? When should I get one? How do I get one?

I know this is a lot, and I do not expect a reply that replies to each thing I mentioned... although that would be nice. If there is any needed information in order to help me that I left out, please mention it. Anyways, to sum everything up, I need a mentor.
