Too many people in this world are looking to shortcut everything, and if you dive in and learn to do it right right way knowing your added risk, go for it man! 

I'm going to start really diving in on investing for my family's future.

I am diving deep into learning through books and podcasts right now

I'll definitely plan to dive in to the resources that you mentioned in the post above.I'm also very analytical (I'm a numbers guy in my day job), so you are speaking my language!

I'm ready to dive in :) 

I'm a 22 year old full-time college student from the northeastern Ohio area and I'm hoping to dive into the world of REI within the next few months! 

I'm just going to have to dive in a bit deeper to make my decision.

I am very new to this so I am just trying to get things a little bit in order before I dive right in.

I have a duplex and a triplex under contract that need to close in next 30 days..........I could dive into my 401k (as its not making any money anyway) but would rather find a partner in Michigan that actually understands Real Estate.

You need to do everything you can to get smart before diving in.
