This is my first post after countless BP Podcasts.Firstly, WOW.

I've completed several feasibility studies for clients in my capacity as an adviser, as well as countless supply and demand studies.

I have read everything on this forum and many others along with countless other real estate books.

Hi folks, I am a young, aspiring entrepreneur and after being enlightened by countless financial books, such as Rich Dad, Poor Dad, the Millionaire Mind, and etc, I am more than motivated to begin my journey as a Real Estate Investor. 

I spent countless hours working before and after my 9-5 job, devoted weekends to driving for dollars, spent hours and hours on real estate education but every second has been worth it.  

No matter how great of a person you are, they don't know that from reading a cold ad.Within the network of an REI club, there will be countless people who would be glad to give you tips and pointers.

Ask yourself, why would an agent work countless hours, use his/her own resources (especially car and gas), be on constant call, only not to get paid a cent?

I'm just thinking of the countless times I have heard that one should plan for those things just in case.

I would rather pay others to be up to date on any regulations and issues in the RE world here, and then have them share with me as I need the info, then to have to spend countless hours researching myself and taking me away from the business.I think every investor has to evaluate their goals and based on what they plan on doing, will help determine whether to get a license or not, also their state will help determine that as well, some states are very easy and others are not when it comes to licensing. 

Trust me I've been to countless ones where they will up-sell an even greater "must have to succeed in real estate" type of product which will usually run in the tens of thousands of dollars.Hope my input is beneficial, and saves you a few thousand that you should be using for marketing to sellers, or something else that will be utilized effectively.
