One guy said to purchase a 250cc at the beginning so i can get a sense of riding a lot easier and learn how to corner better before i get into the higher CC bikes, while another said not too because then im going to end up wanting to get rid of the bike pretty soon for another and i'd just end up losing money in the process. I know this is a long ways away but i'd rather get a couple questions asked sooner than later so when the time comes i know exactly what im doing/looking for and im not waiting for replies to my questions then. Any advice/tips and what i should be asking myself or etc would be appreciated.

I highly recommend you invest in riding school. Not just to increase your survival techniques but also to answer your question above.
You'll be practicing in 250's and after 1 week with them, you will know by yourself if you're ready to jump to a 600, or if you need more time in a 250.
