(Don't get buried with debt that could choke a horse by going to an out of state private school, If your passion is to teach elementary school, there are more economical ways to get your degree to make that happen.) 2) Explore new things to find something you are passionate about. 3) Observe & learn what drives human behavior 4) Learn how to use a Financial Calculator & understand how powerful a tool it is in your financial life. 5) Build & maintain good habits 6) Develop great relationships, surround yourself with trustworthy, hardworking, honest, & passionate people. 7) Develop a thirst for knowledge & never stop learning.

He has already dropped it 22% and now you may let it go for a 2% difference.It is like watching Storage Wars where you have one bidder willing to buy a storage unit for $1K to only let it go to someone else who bid on it for $1,025...

We also watch "TV" on our own iPads in common areas, so there's no fighting over a TV or hearing their crap shows.I don't feel locked in my room.

Watch T-Bills rates go up, price adjusts down or appreciation slows, inventory increases.

Based on that background, I'd say the following would be most applicable: Know the #s:- Accounting courses- financial modeling classes (now I'm doing deal syndication I wish I had taken more financial modeling courses) - specific real estate courses (as @Matt Devincenzo mentioned those CCIM courses have very good reviews) Connect with people: - public speaking (taking a stand up comedy class is like Public Speaking on steroids) - psychology classes and books (why do people do what they do) Be a good manager: - Business management (as you already mentioned) - Experience DOING or being exposed to it with an internship or job shadowing That said, my OVERALL advice is to find people who are doing these things and actually do it with them or closely watch them do it (then do it).

The tenants watch me go down the check list, check boxes, make notes, and we discuss any findings. 

Like I said, I've been watching Sarasota real estate for the last 5+ years.

What should I be worried about or watch out for?
