Educating Before Investing

[Eric Telese]

Hello BP community and Happy New Year! I have recently been accumulating as much knowledge as I can before making my first investment in real estate. It is no secret that education and knowledge plays a huge role in building the foundation for a real estate empire. My question to you all is this:

How did you/ can I know I am ready to make my first investment in real estate?

I am consistently listening to podcasts, reading, etc. But I want to set a goal for myself in terms of how much I need to educate, and what categories. I want to make myself an outline covering all possible categories and subcategories that I should be studying and learning about. Does anybody have something like this they can share? Any insight will help me reach my goals. Thank you!
