Education, networking and hard work can definitely bring you a step closer to get into the game.Among podcasts I'd recommend:1) Jake&Gino2) Michael Blank3) Rod Khleif4) Old Capital5) RE guysBooks - start with Gene Trowbridge book (he's a securities attorney) and David Lindahl (both of his books are a phenomenal read).Originally posted by @Jeremy Porto:I'm working on the education piece of apartment syndication...I listen to several podcasts, have read a lot of books and chat with guys that are doing it. 

My only experience with Rod Khleif was through a meet-up where he was the speaker so I can't provide any feedback on his program.

I'll give a different spin on this though. 

Rod's bootcamp is more than worth it.

There are going to be a lot of spinning wheels without any traction in the comments until you provide the following answers.

@Zachary JensenI didn’t spin through the entirety of this.
