Hello I'm 28 not originally from Minneapolis but this is where I work and go to school. Still in school because I dropped out a few years ago. Then I read a ton of Richard Kiyosaki's books, decided in-order to save and invest at least 30% of my income I wanted to make more money so I can put more of it away in order to invest in Real Estate, private placements, or what have you. Real estate is a solid place to start from I believe. 

My plan real vaguely is this: Go to school for accounting/finance, possibly get a Masters degree. Make more money (because of a better job), put more away, and invest it along the way as the deals come and go. 

Well I am still about 2 years from a bachelors, and 2 more years from a masters. So I have 4 years to learn as much as can and make as many mistakes as I can. Of course I still plan to continue learning after the 4 years, but it would be nice to get my hands dirty before that time.

With that said, at least for now, the type of real estate investing I am curious in learning more about would be "little or no money down " as well as "buy & hold" types. 

I hope I did the intro right, I am a bit of a rambler, so sorry for rambling. Excited to be on this site, and learn as much as possible. Thank's for reading!
