Personal narrative from a YouTube monologue recounting the speakers obtaining their realtor's license in September 2008, the difficult market timing, and early struggles entering real estate investing — including taking eight months to complete their first deal and burning through savings during that period. The speaker frames the timing as ultimately a valuable learning experience.

September 2008.

Eight months.

But we were both intrigued with real estate. And so we did what most people do, not all people, but most people do. And we went out and studied for our realtor's license and took the test, pass the test. We got our license September of 2008. And people, we always laugh. This is the worst time to get your license. Actually was the best time for us to get our license, because if you can learn and figure things out there, when it's at the bottom of the barrel, then when it's at its height, then it's just easy going. So we got our license and then took eight months to do a deal, which was depressing. We burnt through a lot of money. And that was when we were like, hey, what's this about being a real estate investor? Why don't we be invest.
