I am a 24-year-old trade magazine editor. I graduated from Northwestern University in 2014 (go Wildcats!) with a degree in journalism. After reading Rich Dad, Poor Dad (cliche) I'm ready to make smart long term investments for my future. How can one pass on passive income once they've been enlightened, right?! I moved back home with my mom and I'm in no rush to leave. Looking for ways to get started and I'm most interested in utilizing the FHA loan to acquire a duplex. What would you suggest to someone in my shoes, with their entire life ahead of them and no real bills (aside from car insurance and student loans) yet? Wisdom welcome!

Thanks so much @Ramon Huerta. I'll definitely check it out. 

It's great to hear from someone who's done just what I'm thinking about! And yes, the podcasts are wonderful. I just started listening to the first three yesterday while cutting my mom's grass. The fact that I didn't want to stop cutting the grass says a lot. I finished Rich Dad, Poor Dad the day before and plan to "take action" ASAP, but thoroughly educate myself first and foremost. 

I'm elated that I stumbled across this site. What a godsend to a newbie like me. 

Thanks for the information and well wishes! I'll let you know :)
