START OR WAIT: A NAVY KID

Hi everyone, 

I hope you all have been having a good Monday. I am in need of some advice as to what I should do. I've recently been financially inspired! I finished reading RICH DAD POOR DAD and have been listening to the BP Podcast. I know for a fact that real estate investing is something I want to pursue. It's going to happen. However, I'm not sure what I can do to start now or if should wait to start.

I'm currently in the Navy living in Jacksonville, NC. I am due to transfer to California for a 6-month school, then I'll transfer to another school in Florida, and continue to do that for a total of 2 years. It is a long training pipeline that bounces me around different states.

Given my current situation, what should I do? Yes, right now I am inspired and hyped after reading and listening to so much great content, but that will die down once I'm in my training program focusing passing exams and evolutions. Are there small steps I can take to make sure I'm set up for the for future? or should I just start to get into it now? or Wait to start in two years when I'm done with all my schools?

I look forward to reading suggestions and advice from you ladies and gentlemen. Thank you in advance.

Respectfully, 

Luis
