I'd just work on building my credit, getting a good W2 job, and reading House Hacking by Craig Curelop.However, if it were me, and I was 18 with the goal of becoming a real estate millionaire and financially free by the age of 25.... then I'd get 2 jobs (preferably jobs that interact with the public and increase people skills), reduce all of my spending, save as much as I could, read all of these books twice, listen to all the BiggerPockets podcasts, watch all of the free webinars, read blog posts, watch youtube videos, go to local meet ups , network and immerse myself into the world of real estate.

They include all the do’s and don’t’s.You're welcome to continue engaging on the site, but any form of ad or solicitation made on the site needs to be placed in the above forum.Please, also be sure to check out our free guide, "Using BiggerPockets to Grow Your Business" for tips on the best ways to interact with BiggerPockets' members to increase your exposure and build your business.

Second post to the same topic to add clarity.You are correct in that the way all of these comparison calculations work are all incredibly similar, but it seems like you're not super clear on when to use these different rates and their interaction with each other. 

What I was hoping to find is simply a group of investors to chat with and share ideas.

The methods may change as I learn more about REI and begin to get some experience.I look forward to my real estate investing journey, interacting with other fellow BP members on the forums, and meeting and networking with local Houston real estate investors at meetups!

Feel free to PM me to chat further.
