Equity vs. Cash Flow

[djs13]

One of the major reasons why I posted this question was because I'm currently trying to develop my plan. I go to college this January and I'll be in a dorm from then until May. I turn 18 in the spring and my hope is to buy a duplex to live in and rent out the other unit and work during the summer. If I could afford it I would definitely consider investing in another property if I made enough being a waiter during the summer. I have about $4,000 in cash that I plan on using solely for real estate.

I plan on transferring the following January (from community college) to a four year school, which will probably be in the city (NYU and Fordham), or possibly Syracuse University or Babson College.

My concern with this thread was my curiosity if I could live off of the cash flow I took in to make me a full-time investor, or if I needed to get a job right after college in order to continue my real estate deals.
