The following is not my success story, but one of a 19 year old on a forum that I regularly frequent. I just thought I would share:
"Well, I haven't been around here much lately, but that is because I have
taken my first action and man was it great! I bought a mobile home here
in Iowa City (a few miles from my University Campus) and I sold it for a
large profit on a note (Lonnie Deal). I learned so much in the process,
and I am proud to say I did it all on my own before my 20th birthday."

Here is his update, he's 22 years old now:
"After many brief hiatuses I am back; and with good reports. Many of you may remember my mobile home investment thread
from when I was 19 years old. After a couple additional mobile home
deals, some miscellaneous arbitrage, and saving; on Monday this week I
closed on my first multi-family apartment building."

It is my belief that the millionaire stories of tomorrow will be based on individuals like this; those who are aggressively taking advantage of the US RE meltdown.
