RE Investment Nay Sayers

Hi Gang,

I wanted to get everyone's take on this.  I'm not one to generally take to heart what other people say that are either a) not in my shoes or b) don't have words of wisdom from prior experience but I've been running into this a lot.  

Whenever I mention to someone that I'm educating myself into real estate investing and plan to make my move at the beginning of the year, I get a good amount of negative responses, basically saying it's an unwise decision.  This is not only from people outside of the business but some people that have done it.  I'm not one to get deterred easily but more often than not when you get that sort of response, ones natural reaction is to second guess.  

My question is how does/has everyone handled this "barrier to entry" for someone starting off.  Any words of wisdom or prior experiences that you've encountered that could be beneficial is much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
