Steps Toward My Goals
Hello everyone! This is my second time posting. Ive taken a couple of steps towards becoming involved in the real estate investing game. Hopefully you guys can both tell me if I'm moving in the right direction, and give me any constructive criticism and tips.
First, I have started saving all the money I can every week (I am paid weekly and have a full time job).
Second, I have applied for my first ever credit card from my bank, not as a means to buy more things or better things, but as a strategy to build good credit before ever buying my first deal. I plan on using it for only fuel and paying it off every month before the charges roll over into the next month.
Finally, I count joing BP as a step I have taken as well. Becoming involved like this is really giving me some confidence and an overflow of information that I'm doing my best to absorb.
To give a basis of my future real estate investment model, I am most interested in the live-in-flip strategy. So, thank you for reading! Any tips and ideas of different directions I should go are welcome!

Those do indeed sound like good steps toward the goal. Have you considered applying for a small with your bank as another means of building your credit. I used that method to expand my credit profile and it worked well for me.
