Buenos días Felipe,Para responder a tu pregunta de donde hospedarte en Cali, te recomiendo hospedarte en San Antonio porque es un barrio lleno de vida social.

And what about their internet and cable bills I cover?

Don't stick your toe in the water and continue to just reading internet articles, taking classes and buying courses without taking action. 

Also they have social security they cant touch until 65, but can start investing it at age 25-30 i believe.....

Investors can also access both debt investments in the form of first or second-position loans secured directly or indirectly by residential and commercial properties usually yielding a fixed interest rate of 8-12% annually as well as equity investments in residential and commercial properties offering cash flows during the hold period and/or a portion of the profits upon a sale of the property.RealtyShares is an online investment platform that uses the internet to pool investors into funds that hold an interest in a pre-identified private real estate investment.

The disability check and social security add up to 3X rent. 

It's pretty cut and dry.Sneaking off to the bathroom or break room to take calls, using your employer's internet that they pay for, printing out personal documents and copies, are all forms of theft and quickly degrade you in the eyes of your boss.Again, sorry to be harsh but I've run a business and let employees go who decide that their outside interests take precedence over the time I am paying them for.

I recently found bigger pockets on my internet exploration and research and I find myself wanting to do more with Real Estate.  

We have a person in the Social Service department that frequently calls us about vacancies for section 8 apartments.

Be humble, work hard and forget about having a social life outside of work for the next 5+ years.
