Which one suits your personal style best and seems most likely to be able to work for YOU.Nothing is guaranteed in this business and without knowledge you could find yourself spinning your wheels in the mud and not making much every year, or losing portions of your investable money do to lack of knowledge.That being said, study up on some of the different ways to make money in this business, and pay attention to the risk involved with each, both time risk and money risk, (risk/reward) and find YOUR Sweet Spot of Personal Effort and Risk.Then once you have chosen a particular path (to invest your money) move forward, paying attention to the state of the economy in the area you are investing in.There are many roads to your goal, figure out which one is best for YOU, and then NEVER GIVE UP in the face of adversity....because this business is not all Sunshine and Roses...but it can be very profitable--(IF) you know what you are doing.Good Luck!
