I am currently reading the book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" as a start.

@Anthony Dew Get a rich friend to partner on it with you is one possible avenue.

No problem with communication, etc.

I'm a full time Petroleum Field Service Technician for a private company/contractor and via the recommendation of the book 'Rich Dad, Poor Dad' from a colleague, I've become extremely interested in investing.

The other advantage is the technology and ease of communication/distribution.

Its very important to maintain constant communication with the short sale bank for any Auction dates on their files.  

Started Oil & Gas Consultancy business with my brother in 2009.Got to $2M/year by 2012, then life happened in 2014 after being back-stabbed by our partner that took us from Riches to Rag by end of 2015.Father of 3 beautiful kids & a sweet wife.

I think that is exactly the kind of place a rich foreigner would send their kid for school.

I do believe the communication is not as it should be as I'm being told one thing then questioned about the same points later. 

RE is a get rich business but not a get rich quick business.
