Josh,

Since you're young, and kind of in the prep stage, I would start by making sure you are saving some money every month.  Pay your savings account like its a bill.  limit your monthly expenses.  The more cash you have, the more flexibility you will have when you are ready to take action. 

Listen to all of the podcasts, over and over.  Don't skip ones that you think don't pertain to you.  There is good information  in each and every one of them, even if its not the area you are wanting to work in.
