@Rich Baer do you want to clarify the "absolutely"?  

I'll start combing Youtube as well @Rich Baer, which works especially well for me because I am a very visual learner! 

They are such a rich resource as your learn.  

Try reading any of the "Rich Dad" series of books.  

After all, where's the line between revitalization (i.e. reviving a depressed area) and gentrification (as you put it, kicking out the poor and as I'll put, bringing in some rich hipsters). 

I read Poor Dad Rich Dad, and of course like many others I felt that Robert was talking about my specific situation.

@Rich Hupper What state?

If you are already filthy rich congratulations you have the money to be even richer, if like most people you are not stinking rich already you will likely end up losing it all. 

:(If you were rich and famous, wouldn't you also hold title in a trust or LLC for this very reason?

The bottom line is that if you want to get WELATHY and RICH while still somewhat YOUNG, you gotta put your safety on the line and tack on a HUGE amount of risk.
