Thank you all for the feedback! I truly appreciate it.

I want to reword my thoughts:

I now know I can't just raise millions of dollars because I want to. I need credibility, either through working for a couple of years for a company or buying my own property, starting small, and scaling with time.

Now, my plan is to graduate next year (Im a junior), and get a job in a firm as an analyst in order to build that experience and mainly cover my living expenses, while on the side buy my first small property and go from there.

However, and this is where I start overthinking,  I still have 1 year left in school and I want to use it to my advantage as I don't have any expenses or responsibilities other than school yet, and I want to do my first deal. Now, I am currently interning with a boutique developer in Boston focused on multifamily and my plan is to not only learn from them but also try and do my first deal in partnership with them. So i'll either find the deal or find the money.

What do you guys think of this?

Am I rushing too much? The thing is I've been learning about real estate for almost 2 years and still haven't bought my first property and it's driving me insane . And I understand that i am college kid with no money or experience but then you see people like Rob Beardsley who dropped out at 20 and bought a 200 unit property through syndication and then you think, hm, maybe its possible.
