I don't buy into the "get rich quick" BS.

It is the easiest way for the average person to become rich and make big leaps in their net worth.     

Hi @Giovanni Moreno, welcome to the world of real estate investing :) If I was to go back to 18 and start fresh these are the first three books I would read:- Rich Dad Poor Dad- The Millionaire Real Estate Investor - The Richest Man in BabylonThen, after getting started with a rental or five, I'd read the following:- The ABCs of Real Estate Investing- Buy, Rehab, Rent, RefinanceStart with a solid foundation and a growth-mindeset and you'll have an unstoppable future!

For those of you who read Rich Dad Poor Dad, you know about the 3 day real estate class that Robert Kiyosaki took.

Hi everyone,Long-time lurker here, like many people Rich Dad Poor Dad got me hooked on RE over 15 years ago.Unfortunately, I never put my plans into action.

@Rich NationI think it depends entirely on the individual.

This is where willpower comes in and get worse going from Financial independence to Financial Freedom because you COULD quit if you wanted to… (since then I have also found https://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2013/02/22/getting-rich-from-zero-to-hero-in-one-blog-post/which seems to be along the same lines, but your mileage may vary)When you start having a net worth, you’ll need to start making money from investments as it’s impossible to retire from a salary alone.

I read "rich dad poor dad" 4 years ago and really got excited about real estate, just have not done a deal yet.

It is a book that I discovered from Rich Dad Poor Dad that goes over these types of situations.

I actually won't look further than 4 miles from my house as MPLS is such a rental rich area with a lot of opportunity.
