Since you want it to be as easy/quick as possible, I'll give you three things you need to learn...as a starting point:1 - How to Analyze Markets to find the Micro-markets that are good to invest in.2 - How Money Works, so you can develop an unlimited number of strategies which will allow you to be able to take advantage of as many opportunities as possible.3 - How to design your own REI Plan by reverse engineering from your specific set of financial goals back to where you are now...then execute it by turning around and just following the breadcrumbs.4 - (OK, I said it wasn't as easy as "just one thing")...Learn what the meaning of the number sequence "1073751824" means, and how to base EVERY decision you make on the meaning of that number sequence.5 - Learn why it's so important to follow the 2 Golden Rules of REI, of which GR#1 is:  NEVER, under ANY circumstances, ever, EVER, spend your seed money (your starting cash).
