What can you do with $10,000?

Hey investors!

I'm a total newbie, so bare with me here. But I've read a few books this past year on various real estate investment strategies. I've been analyzing deals all over the country for the past month or so.
I've also been saving up some cash over time and have been trying to decide the best way to use it.

But I guess you could say I'm in a state of analysis paralysis LOL.

I know $10,000 isn't a lot of cash to work with, but I wanted to challenge the minds of some seasoned veterans here and ask what they would do if they only have $10,000 to invest starting out.

Since I don't own a home yet, I'm leaning toward a house hack with a 5-10k downpayment to get started. That strategy seems most feasible for me. However, I'm curious to see what others would do if they were in my situation.

Thoughts? or creative possibilities?

I look forward to reading your responses.
