I'm also an engineer by day, so enjoying the analysis part of deals and making my own spread sheet calculator.

That's the same question I've been asking myself the last year :p Still super fun though.I recommend: save 10%, donate 10% to charity, and spend 80% of the money on the things you and your brother truly enjoy or have always wanted to do.

All you are required to do is watch a few videos, take some notes, and then write letters: to the various Original Credit Agencies (OCA), like bank credit cards; Credit Agencies (CA) you have gotten collection letters from; to the big three credit reporting agencies (CRA), Experian, Equifax and TransUnion, who report what they receive from the OCAs and the CAs, whether accurate or not.Mike Roberts, founder of Credit Solutions, has a great free program designed to help you rebuild your credit.

I think it depends on what type if investor you want to be. if you enjoy wholesaling I would continue to do that and build more reserves.

I have been reading and watching the podcasts as well and am excited to network and meet other investors, agents, contractors etc. to possibly collaborate with in the future. 

I think you will find it far easier and more enjoyable in the long run to buy and renovate vacant homes.......or be a contractor.......

Enjoy privacy, peace of mind.2.
