Check out the "Riches are in the Niches" podcast specifically about college housing.  

@Andy Chu I lend on traditional loans, hard money loans and loan my own money.  

His personal winery that was catering to the 40 to 80 dollar bottles at retail.. suffered tremendously and many went out of business and ended up being sold to celebrities and very rich business folks. not people interested in making money which is a lot of what happens in Napa.so in short your tenants will not store wine they will buy a bottle and drink it.. maybe buy 2 or 3 but that will be it. 

Saying that, scaling L/O's and sub2's is not the way to RE riches. 

After that, I will do so many deals that I'll get rich and buy an island.. :)

Only a disgustingly rich person, who couldn't care less what happens with the investment, doesn't spend some time managing the investment, even if that's just discussing strategy with their portfolio manager once in a while.

I was focused on learning about investing in stocks but I had read Rich Dad Poor Dad so that sparked my interest to see what this whole REI was about.  

Retail is the traditional next step but I'm concerned about the outlook for anything except AAA locations. 

@Brian Cook You're in a very good position with a good income at a young age, but real estate investment isn't a get rich quick scheme.

It was in one the handful of REALTOR magazines I receive each month.Hopefully doesn't go away but like you said Al, government LOVES getting their hands on those "pesky rich people loopholes."
