@Anthony Frato Welcome to BP! I am from Cleveland and have been investing in real estate since 2009. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions. What type of investing are you looking to get into?

Welcome to BP@

@Nick Patterson is spot on. Due your due diligence buy you are never going know everything going into a deal. Be prepared to work though problems and learn as you go.

Good luck!

@Lane Kawaoka

Not necessarily, lots of great real estate and business books out there but I wouldn't say they are pre reqs. These are great books to get you thinking the right way when you start out. Ultimately you are going to learn the most from pulling the trigger and taking action.

Never going to know everything going in to a deal just open to the fact that you are never going to stop learning and keep reading and asking questions.

P.S. just read through the list again and missed this the first time, is that 4 hour or 40?

Yeah I agree with @Jesse LeBlanc the BP podcasts are great. I always throw one one while driving or working out.

@Lane Kawaoka I have read these, all great books. I want to branch out and read some books on the economy so I can get a better perspective of the bigger picture. Any suggestions? 

I have a couple on the way that Kiyosaki recommended in Cashflow Quadrant but always good to get some different opinions. 

Thanks!

Rob

I think this book still has a lot of value and can help people become a little more aware of their personal finances and where there money is going.  I don't think the "rat race" he refers to was meant to be demeaning but use to show how people will continue to live pay check to pay check if they live beyond their means regardless of how much they make. 

Thanks for putting this out there, always good to read different perspectives.
