Walk me thru how you did it like how did you buy the house ? And do you need to go to college to become a successful realtor? 

Hi me kenni again , I'm a young entrepreneur always look towards the future. I'm 18 just graduated high school and currently working full time at a pharmacy delivering medications. I work long hours with lower then average pay. Not the best thing I can be doing with my time I know that , but I have to pay my bills. But before I pay my bills I always "pay my self first" putting 40% of my monthly paycheck aside and saving it and saving it. But as a young 18 year old I don't want to be rich but wealthy and to have financial freedom. To have my assests produce a cash flow every month and year to pay for my expenses so that I can enjoy this life. 

The big question I'm trying to ask is what investments and assests can a 18 year old with average pay investment in to start building a foundation for early on and long term wealth?

Chad thanks , that's a great idea! And just in time too cause i have to move out of my parents house for personal reasons and I'm getting an apartment , would it be wise for me and my current roommate (cousin) to get a 3 bed apartment and use the 3rd bedroom as an asset and charge people to rent the 3rd room?

Thanks guy raveh , I do have a a job I'm currently working full time , but would like to invest my paychecks . To begin building me some wealth. 

Any advice ??

Hi I'm ken , I created this account on bigger pockets to learn from veterans of the trade and to accumulate knowledge and the ins and outs of successfuly investing in real estate because they say the accumulation of knowledge leads to the accumulation of wealth.

I'm fairly young (18) but have the drive to learn all there is to become successful in my future career . To help you more i would like to discuss my goals so you can help me more. I grew up in North - East las vegas which is probably the roughest neiborhood to grow up in. My parents are immigrants that had moved here from Thailand. I didn't have alot as a kid so I grew up always being used to working and hustling for what I needed. I just finished and graduated high school and always had an interest in buissness. What I liked even more then buissness and money was real estate ( cause really who doesn't like big beautiful houses ) . I was supposed to go to college but didn't get approved for financial aid (surprisingly cause i live in a single family house with 9 bodies ) and me and my parents didn't have enough to send me to college. I am currently registering in a community college and transferring to unlv to get my Masters in business. My goal is to become a stockbroker and invest in foreclosed houses here in vegas and flip them for profit and soon after open up my own real estate firm 

But what I need right now is guidance from anybody just some advice

•I just wanna know are my current plans good. Or am I leaving out critical steps to success?

•can I be both a stockbroker and real estate broker?

•what field of study should I take in college to become a broker or realtor?

•and any other advice or investments I can make while I'm in college to build a foundation for a wealthy future? 

Please your advice will be much appreciated

And your time has been much appreciated for taking the time to read this

Thanks - kenni
