In Aus
As others have said the US market is very different to here, also very volatile... and it's hard for even experienced investors from Aus to get finance. I'd be wary as a first purchase.
Also think what I'd do is buy a PPOR, live in it six months then rent it out.
An advantage to moving is that you will become familiar with lots of cities in Aus. Excellent for the future in that it will make it easier to buy property remotely and spread your assets around.
An alternative to tracker funds are shares such as Argo, a company which buys shares in other companies. (No, I don't work there.) Effectively it gives you more diversification in the share market than just buying shares in one or two companies.
A good income is important to building your investment empire! So don't forget to really put some effort into your day job. Every promotion counts towards more cashola for investments! And partners in big law firms earn megabucks.
Have you considered that one future business which might suit you would be to go to the bar? It's working for yourself, it's flexible if you need more time to manage investments... and you can take on worthy pro bono cases to satisfy your need to contribute to society.
Good luck!
