Question about investing/financing.

[Eihli]

I want to invest, most likely in real estate. I am 18, have no job, no high school diploma/equivalent, and the only thing I own of value is a car worth about $2k. Anyone else see the problem? Eihli to banker: "Hi, I own nothing, have no job, no education, illegal income, and I'd like to borrow $75,000 to buy a house." Doesn't look good. What are my options, saving "get a job and ged", as a last resort? What options open up if I had cash to invest, and how much cash would it take to open that option? I'll save my questions about paying taxes on that cash for the internet forum, but if anyone here feels like they can help in that aspect, it would be appreciated.
