Total Newbie Who Dreads Her "Golden Years"
OK, so I may be a bit melodramatic! I am a single woman who is, ahem, past 55. I still work full time. However, I've never made a lot of money and when I review my Social Security statements -- YIKES!
So, I am hoping (and praying) that real estate investing is doable. I have purchased my own home and have always been interested in real estate. I've had a limiting belief that you had to have a lot of money to get involved with investing. However, I am beginning to see there are some ways around putting your own money into a deal.
Another issue has been my tendency toward introversion.... However, I'm determined to get out there and meet other investors and realtors. Time is passing and I can't just sit here on the couch with my cat!
Anyway, I love BiggerPockets and will post more as time goes by.
