Thanks @Chris K. @Bill Gulley for the insight. It was very helpful! I think I'll hold onto the job I have now and let my stock and 401k grow and continue wholesaling on the side and work my way to a point in my life where I can start making bigger deals that are more profitable!

Thanks, Eddie

Thanks @Clay Smith I am pretty young, almost 29, but not single and have a 20 month old son, which is the main reason for me wanting to start this business and make it as successful as I can. But I'll def check out the link and keep what you said into consideration! Thanks, Eddie

@Chris K. My plan was to find a new full-time job to replace the job I have now. I would make sure the new job paid me as much or more than I'm making now, of course. And I was referring to stocks that I have purchased through the company I work for. And yes Im just wholesaling now until I gain more experience and learn more about other ways to invest. Thanks for your reply and I hope all goes well for you!

Well I appreciate the quick replies. Its rough getting started especially when you're low on funds. I'll keep what you all said in mind and look for other ways to find funding and close these deals!

Thanks @Eric M. @Troy Sheets @Bill Gulley

Ok, so so I've started my wholesale business in August and have generated a good amount of leads but have yet to close on a deal. And at the moment my marketing budget is very low so my leads haven't been coming in like they were in the last couple weeks. But my main reason for posting this is because I want to know if what I have in mind is a good idea. So I've worked at a large grocery store for the past 12 years and make decent money and have a little over $40,000 in stock. I have considered looking for another full-time job so I could take this money and use it towards investing or marketing or whatever would help me out in my business. I realize if I take this money they would take a large amount out for taxes and penalties but I would still get about $30,000+ out of it. I just want to know if this is a good idea and if I made this step what would be my best move with this amount of money? I would appreciate any help I could get. Thank you, Eddie

Hello folks!

My name is Eddie Dixon and I'm a new wholesaler out of Ocala Florida and working throughout all of Central Florida. After months of research and studying I decided to start my own wholesale business then eventually start purchasing my own investment properties for bigger profits. I'm pretty new to the business and have yet to close my first deal but I have had a good amount of leads. I'm here to network and meet new investors near and far and to learn as much as possible. I'm hoping to expand my buyers list on here as well so if interested please let me know! Feel free to reply to me with any questions or concerns!

Thanks, Eddie
