The Deep End of the Pool

Hello. I'm new to this site and very new to real estate investing. I've recently watched a series of Dean's video's and have purchased his book. I'm 3/4 done with the first and will launch into the second book by day's end. My list of questions grows long with my excitement level. I've decided to ignore the negative thoughts and input from those around me; also ignoring the nay-sayers who proclaim only doom and gloom for our economy. I've decided to jump into the deep end of the real estate investing pool and make my mark. Hope you'll pardon the many questions I'll have as I find my sea-legs. I promise to be generous with help and information as soon as I have some experience tucked under my belt. I'm a bit nervous about starting something new...but from what I've read all of you were new to this at one time too. I have no money with which to begin this adventure so mine will be a real "rags to riches" story. I'm not afraid of hard work...only afraid of doing the wrong work. From what I've read in Dean's books the path is laid out clearly...so clearly even I can follow. I'm going back to finish reading book number one today. Then it's time to set up a phone line and begin advertising for buyers and sellers. Somewhere along the way I'll build and launch a website with an eye toward having my first money making deal in the next 30 days.
See you at the top.
