Looking forward to soaking up knowledge, sharing experiences, and maybe even providing a laugh or two.

Considering you currently have 0% household expenses, I believe this should actually be less risky if you currently live for free. 

He has many years of experience and he is a wealth of knowledge.

I have a wealth of knowledge I can share with you and provide you with some good insights into markets to avoid and those to pursue. 

Also, starting with 1-2 properties might be a safer approach to build your experience and knowledge.

Feel free to reach out if you have any more questionsor need further assistance.

Can anyone convince me why I should start investing in these areas and share more details based on their knowledge/experience?

There's a lot of people that say you can just take over the payment of the seller and have them sign a silent DOT, but without approval/knowledge of the underlying bank. 

If any of that sounds complex or confusing feel free to reach out I can help explain.
