Starting your own real estate private equity company

I just recently graduated college and I know this is VERY far down the line but eventually, my goal is to start my own REPE company.

I would love to hear as much as advice as I can. Whether is what experience I should be getting, whom I should be networking with, and if there are any Master's degrees I should be getting.

Thanks in advance!

Are you near Southern CA? If so, I know someone you can try to meet who did exactly that.
