Someone posted recently (like 1-2 days ago) with some book recommendations. I think it was specifically about rental properties

I strongly recommend the following in order for newbies:

Online-bigger pockets

Happy to chat about getting started, it’s not as difficult as it seems

Damn good for you guys. I’m 25 and wondering if I’ll ever be able to afford a house of my own let alone property to rent out

For any residential property under 5 units it’s possible to do less than 20%. You be a competitive offer, but you can do it. I have a colleague who bought his last 7 investment properties with 10-15% down on conventional fixed rate loans

Thursday I got it in my head that I needed to hedge against potential Dollar devaluation. I looked at other market funds thinking them to be good proxies for other currencies.

I decided to pick up a few but saw the Baltic Index was going up, higher shipping rates means increased demand, so it pointed to the Chinese economy picking up significantly.

I looked at FXI, there was no option interest so they were super cheap. I figured I pick up a bunch.

They opened at +%333 talk about dumb luck.

WFH Vs WF Office Vs Hybrid, Which one should you take?
If you are fresher, go for a WF Office setup. You will learn things beyond your work. In the initial phase of of your career, one needs to focus more on learning than on comfort. The interactions at office, meeting with collegues, conversations at the cafeteria, sense of responsibilty, the need to walk up on time to reach office etc will shape you for better.

Once you have a work experience of few year then any setup is fine. Go for WFH.
