Thanks for sharing Kwame, we learn so much from people posting real life situations they have  walked through!  

Your top priority in your life right now is to protect your family, the best way for you to do that is to finish school, not get into real estate!!!

hello everybody and thanks for all the responses and supportill try answering everyone the best the i can:* lived in Israel all of my life - im a software engineer and the company im working for moved me here.

I am young and do not want to be laying tile the rest of my life so i would like to get into the buisness of real estate investing and flipping homes to build a wealth and possibly a passive income.

And of course I habe attended a an few seminars in the Reno area and they are all like those late night infomercials that say "if you pay only $19.99 you roo can have this life".

Real estate has always been a strong interest next to that of health and wellness.

Set up some stability in your life here in the US, then continue with your business aspect.

Putting things I've learned from here and other places and tying them together in real life.
