Hello! I'm 22 and my name is Nadia. Graduated college a year ago and my parents really wanted me to become a doctor. Plans changed and I realized I wanted to live my life on my own terms instead of my parent's.

I ended up moving to the Midwest away from my parents to start my life over with next to nothing.

I'm not going to lie. I've spent the last year chasing money. Tried to learn how to use Fiverr selling a niche gig and made up to $50/month. Nothing special but considering my gig took 5 minutes to do, it was pretty cool to make money from not doing much Then again, it's not sustainable and honestly Fiverr has become worse and harder for me to find customers on in the past year. I also tried learning bitcoin but I stopped wasting my time with it because I realized it wasn't creating much value/solving any problems/and frankly I just don't care that much.

I've been working odd jobs for the past year and doing various things like helping flip houses, painting houses, grouting houses, mowing lawns. I've also spent the past year working in property management and finding creative solutions for vacation rental property owners and making $ off of that. It's been fun and I've come across a lot of problems where I've thought "Oh well I wish this product was available because X is really annoying". The only issue I've really had is going from wanting to fix one problem to the next and not sticking with one problem. I have decided though ultimately to go into real estate.

I just finished reading The Millionaire Fastlane as well as Unscripted and it really reinforced what I figured out from my past jobs in the last year and I'm glad that this community exists. It's really cool to see all these people developing solutions for problems and being able to sustain themselves off of that.

I just took my real estate exam and just got my real estate license and I've been reading tons of books on real estate. I'm really interested in creating a product that will help real estate transactions go more smoothly and I'm looking for a mentor especially in real estate and start investing in real estate as well as sell houses as an agent asap. In return, I'll help you run your social media, websites, and find renters/buyers for your properties as well as make brownies or any other baked good of your choice (I bake a ton).

You're looking for a mentor in the wrong place. Look locally, not on this forum. The percent of people here that are in Kansas City and in real estate is likely 0% or close to it.

Great job on identifying value creation vs money chasing. You just need exposure in a few different areas before figuring out what's the right fit for you.

I recommend getting exposure outside of real estate as well. Your mindset is currently fixed on real estate, but you might be better in different industries.

Also don't go the "real estate agent" route. Anyone and everyone goes that route. There's a lot easier ways to make money.

At 22, I'd be pushing to do sales for a tech company or something similar. A lot more scale and easier money than learning how to be a real estate agent.
