I’ve been sitting back reading this site for a while and see that several of us (especially on the West Coast) are in the same boat.We’re inspired to pursue Rich Dad’s dream and started by reading books, researching online and reading / listening to Bigger PocketsWe probably have some money, but not the kind that goes very far in Southern CaliforniaWe curious about investing out-of-state but may not know which market to choose or who to trustWe feel a bit overwhelmed about the different options and can’t pinpoint where to startA lot of that sounds like me too!  

I'm also HUGE fan of the some of books that have come to light through BP as well - Miracle Morning, Rich Dad Poor Dad's, & Think and Grow Rich & all the other books we've heard through the podcast that I'm still in the works on.I've come to BP after being in the stock market through various means over the past 6 years.

But you dont have to be filthy rich with lots of cash to do it...though lots of cash never hurts lol.

Welcome to BiggerPockets @Rich Kleinhans!

The husband maybe read Rich Dad Poor Dad and wants a multifam, but wife wants to nest and have space... wife usually wins. 

@Rich Hupper thank you.

From reading books like Rich Dad Poor Dad, and other RE investing books, taking online classes and courses, going to meet-up groups.

Thanks Rich!

I won't share too much of my personal story.The first book I read that changed my perspective was, "Rich DAD POOR DAD",mostly because up until that point I had never considered the concepts presented in the book.

Been listening to the podcast for some time now, and am finishing Rich Dad, Poor Dad.
