Hey BP!! This is such a incredible website. I'm a newbie I really hope I don't bore you guys to death, but here is a little bit about me. I've been thinking STRONGLY about getting into Real Estate here lately!! Mainly wanting to get into Buy and Holding properties, and flipping house's while owning buy/hold properties. I have recently been listening to @Brandon Turner book on Rental Property Investing. Very Very informative book i'm on my 3rd time listening to the audio book trying to absorb as much of it that I possibly can . Currently I'm a 22 year old miserable Truck Driver. I absolutely hate it. I need people in my life I am not here to sit on my butt and drive. I don't mind work one bit I love to work, and I also love making money. So why not put almost all your motivation into making money for a incredible life to where I will eventually not have to work ALL the time, and just set back, and go on vacation when I want. I been thinking about just toughing out being a Truck driver at least until the beginning of the year, and just save all the money that I can. I don't plan to go with out a job. I thinking I am going to have to keep at least a part time job while I get even more into Real Estate. I've also considered becoming a part time contractor, or something along those lines, because its going to help out even more with my Real Estate journey. I'm planning on being in it for the long run. I will most defiantly be running it more as a business instead of a hobby. It just makes much more sense to do it like that if your in it for the long run, which I'm going to be. 1 Thing that's really been on my mind is. That since i'm a truck driver possibly buy a multi-unit property 3-4 units, fix it up nice get everything, Rent worthy, working good, and rent it out, I think it would be a good idea for me to start out in real estate by using the "House Hacking" method. I'm really not sure though since i'm not able to be home during the week in case a some what major maintenance problem was to occur that couldn't wait until the weekend. I have 1 or 2 family members that could possibly help out. If I was to give them a little cash. I just don't no. Another reason I was wanting to wait for the new year is to just continue to gain knowledge from other Real Estate books, and continue listening to Josh and Brandon's Absolutely incredible BP podcast. I have learned so much just by listening to those 2. So by the time the new year rolls around I would have TONS of knowledge on Real Estate and have a little money saved up, and get started. I also have a pretty major problem holding me back, and the my social anxiety. I try so hard not to get nervous around crowds of people. I just can't help it. I'm ok with 1 on 1 conversation's. I'm a likable guy I just cant handle crowds bigger than 3+ people. That's Just a little about me. I hope to come on here in the near future, and share my success story or story's I just to see how things will turn out. I'm hoping you guys held on through this boring post. Those of you that did that is great Thank you guys! BP is also the 1st blog or forum that I have ever posted on. So you want to talk about a newbie that's me!!
Thanks BP your great i'm ready to see what my future holds for me.
