They are designed to get you interested in buying training or to put you exactly where you are so you realize that you need training to do this correctly.One of the things that distresses me most is reading here on BP about people that read and listen to all the free stuff, and then say they are going to try wholesaling or start with wholesaling.  

Oh, web search, "Sell my house fast Gulf Shores" or other nearby city, and that will generate some wholesaler websites too. 

the building has not been maintained well at all so the trim, walls, all that are ready to be replaced.I can't speak to the insulation part, but I recently framed over a masonry wall for aesthetics ... still used 2x4s, only oriented them so the wider part (3.5") ran parallel to the wall and the wall only came in 1.5"+ drywall thickness ... the trick for electrical is that they sell "narrow" outlet boxes designed for this applications rather than the standard depth ones designed for framing the traditional way.

I think that you will find that there is no one good resource to learn about money management, and that lots of smart people here on BiggerPockets and around the web will disagree intelligently on the best ways to manage your money.I think that a good list of books to begin reading if you are interested on taking control of your money, learning to invest, and having money work for you, instead of having to work for money, are these:1) Richest Man in Babylon (Great for learning basic finance principles - probably the first book you should read)2) Rich Dad Poor Dad (Great for understanding how wealthy people think about money)3) The Four Hour Work Week (Great for understanding the concept of lifestyle design and that Effort does NOT always correspond to productivity)4) The Millionaire Next Door (Great for understanding about what REAL Rich people do with their lives and money)5) The Wealth Barber (A Great step by step look at a reasonable approach for a typical american looking to manage their wholistic financial position)6) The Compound Effect (A Great Book that Discusses the Gradual, then accelerative, then explosive nature of finance, and many other life objectives)Oh, and since you are learning about money - get these books from the library for FREE!
