INVESTMENT EDUCATION - HELP

[Jason Kim]

Hello everyone, i live in Chicago and would like to become an investor and start doing short sale deals and wholesaling properties. I wouldnt mind spending few thousands to invest for my education, but i want to learn from a good school or from the right person. what would you recommend when it comes to investment class in chicago or around chicago.

p.s. considering nouveau riche ( only on real estate side and i've heard that the educators are pretty good at what they do )
Thanks in advance.
