A lot of the people that built big portfolios quickly - and then wrote books or built YouTube channels - can lose them just as quickly when they realize they don't know how to manage what they've got, a loan gets called due, or whatever.I recommend you network with other investors and spend time with people that have more than ten years experience and that did it by saving and investing wisely.
