New Investor Confusion

[Liam Kingon]

Hey guys, 

I'm relatively new to the world of investing and real estate and, like most new people, am completely lost on where to start. I'm still a university student, so I'm just using this time to begin learning and building a steady foundation before I give this whole real estate thing a go. What tips or general advice would you give someone brand new?

I have been reading books and listening to audiobooks, I stumbled on this page through random google search. I am trying to find real people to connect with, but there are so many gurus out there it's kind of hard to sort real from fake.
