I learned property investments first from my late grandfather. He always said buy land as per Mark Twain it isn't being made any longer, at his height he owned close to 70acres in Raub and 5 acres in Cameron Highlands. Not a bad feat for someone who was an estate manager. He taught me how to buy land and how to grow your land ownership.
My father on the other hand, the first thing he taught me about property investment is how to change a lightbulb, tap and the basics of home maintenance. His view was no one ever becomes a profitable landlord if you have to keep relying on tradesmen to fix up each time you have tenants that complaints on something amiss. Also some basics of concrete and mortar as well as bricklaying. Admittedly he did not teach me about footings, foundations, beams, columns and pillars soon enough. Beyond that he always thought me there is only one thing about investing in properties, do your homework as diligently as you'd do revision to get an A in A Levels, something at that time I was extremely diligent in as I was dying to get to Britain.

As for teaching my kids.
First kid, she is 18 years old now, only recently met her after a 15 year hiatus. Can't teach her anything until she improves her goddamn entitled attitude. Definitely the mother's fault she turned out that way.
Second, I will teach her the value of money, then will teach her how to perform some age appropriate home maintenance works. Other things I'd outsource to her 2 grandfathers who knows far more than me on this.
Just wonder who taught u to start a new tered for ethg tat came across ur mind. ๐๐๐
