@Christopher Giannino Thanks for the input. I do have an interest in business so I think I should be fine getting through it.

@Liam Goble I will look into it, thanks.

@Tom Meade Thanks a lot. I'm glad to hear that your similar degree has served you well. I feel like the more I can learn about REI in the next 4 years the more confident I will be when it comes time to make my first deals and also make the learning curve for me shorter than normal.

@Gavin Welch I have been absorbing as much as possible about REI over the past month or so through books, and online resources. Do you have any good podcasts to recommend?

@Bryan L. Hopefully, I'm well aware that the true education comes from personal experience and learning from more successful investors but I'm just looking for a way to help get my foot in the door. Thanks, I appreciate your input.

Hey everyone, this is my fist post on BP. I'm currently on active duty in the Navy stationed in San Diego with 4 years left before I will be getting out and moving back to New York where I'm going to start my Real Estate investing career. My goal now is to learn as much as i possibly can about RE investing strategies over the next 4 years to avoid the beginner mistakes when i get started. One of the great benefits of the Navy is that they pay for any college classes I take while on active duty so I'm going to start taking classes very soon. What are your opinions on a bachelors in business administration with a focus on real estate as a degree for a future RE investor?
