@Rich Hupper, I agree with @Chinmay J..

Rich Dad Poor Dad2.

It takes a lot more volume to " get rich" in Cleveland then 90% of my clients in Silicon Valley that paid 300k - 500k 10-, 15 years ago and now can sell for 1.5 - 2 mill, just crazy . 

@Rich RamjatanWell I was thinking of flipping a duplex or triplex and living in one of the units.

If you haven't read Napoleon Hill's "Think and Grow Rich", you should.  

I would strongly recommend reading "Rich Dad Poor Dad" this is a great easy to read book that will lay down a great foundation for your financial future. 

I don't expect to get rich fast or anything very fast until I DO knock out these loans, but was hoping to at least get my foot in the door and maybe 1-2 "low risk" properties could cash flow my student loan payments.

REI in a seller’s market isn’t a “get rich quick” scheme, as much as we would all love for it to be.Because of your steady paycheck, you have this opportunity to not have to force a deal that isn’t there.

Half the nation is unemployed yet we’re all rich thanks to Airbnb and VRBO, and yet we sit here and complain nonstop.

@Ryan Rich For me,I would calculate the purchase as cash.
