Hello @Ryan Punter. Congratulations, you're way ahead of your age--and that will serve you well in the long-run. But, don't give yourself too much credit yet, finding the right information and acting on it are your next steps. I recommend starting with a great finance book as a foundation. The book that I read when I was 21 that changed my life was The Millionaire Next Door. Other good ones are Rich Dad, Poor Dad (this is the most referenced book on BP).
