Aussie in NW Chicago 'Burbs - Gotta stop working for the man

[N/A N/A]

Hi All,

I have just started trying to read everything and suck up knowledge from this site and books to meet my goals of starting up real estate investing. I am in my low 30's and am about to hit my 10 year anniversary with a large company. I have a good income from this company but am tired of working for someone.

I am a little hesitant on how to start. The whole flipping/rehabbing seems to be good in an upward market but with the market right now I don't know if I should focus on trying to get long term buy and holds for rental. If so though, I won't get much cash flow from this initially so will still have to work:(

So, i guess i'll just keep reading and hopefully through the forums or some clubs I am going to join, i will figure out or be taught how to start and build momentum.

Cheers,
Brett
