@Steve Morris I am learning as much possibly in real estate, with a focus of doing wholesaling to raise capital for the rest of my real estate business, is it really that simple?

Hey everyone!
As I’ve noticed creating your first wholesaling business can be a little bit confusing...
To honest I am still very much confused.
If anyone has any advice or tips for an 18 year old with low capital trying to get into wholesaling I would love to hear any advice at all especially, stories, hardships you may have encountered, or things that went completely wrong!
Feel free to message me I love talking to everyone from the forums and meeting new people :)
Have a great rest of your day everyone! I hope everyone’s been killing it this week 🔥

Hi Everyone My Names Josh Messinger
About Me
To be honest, I don't know really where to start, but I'd like to tell everyone what my current situation is.
As of right now I am 18 years old and I have been building e-commerce and dropshipping stores online for the past two years, Also I build and grow theme pages on social media as well. working at my job, being a CSA at Wawa, INC for the past two years.
My Beginning:
I am finally getting into investing and have just started this past August on investing my money in stocks, etfs, and cryptocurrencies(also my stores as well my girlfriend and I have a clothing brand that we just started). As I look to grow and figure out what I want to do in the long term I knew truly when just beginning to gain knowledge about real estate that it is what I want to do in the long term to grow passive income, and expand my portfolio.
What I Want To Do In Real Estate!
So far from what I have learned from Bigger Pockets, and books that I have read. I find rentals, wholesaling, commercial, and flipping to be of my biggest interest. I know real estate investing can turn into almost a job due to listening to everyone on the podcast (lol) and I am committed to working non-stop to learn and consume more info on real estate daily. Growing my knowledge means everything to me and while I start my business I want to have a very versatile and diverse inventing portfolio. I would love to hear any tips or suggestions for a good place to start in real estate with low capital. I may sound dumb right know with the way I speak about real estate but I plan to make that change as well!
Goals:
1. My net worth is around one thousand dollars as of today, and I plan to get that to 10 thousand or more within the next year. Then continue multiplying that as I go along frugally.
2.Quit my 9-5 within 5-10 years and make investing my job. Investing is my dream, and my passion. I have not had more fun in my life losing my money than investing.
3. Creating and establishing friendships with a community of like-minded people that are passionate about the things I am.
4. Helping communities/other people around me and making other people successful that I work with.
5. Creating a sustainable business to support my friends/family. Also, create jobs for others/change people's lives.
