Law Student in Southern California looking to get started

[Eric Nimmo]

Hey all, my name is Eric and I'm a law student in Los Angeles. Right now I'm here to learn. If anyone is investing in the LA area I would love to drive for dollars or help you out in any way possible in order to gain some knowledge/experience about the investing process. 

My long term goal is to own buy-and-hold rentals for the purpose of wealth accumulation and an alternate means for retirement. 

Thanks!

The best thing you can do right now is save and pay down what I'm assuming are going to be some fairly hefty student loans.
