Looking for a mentor but many offer paid coaching, thoughts?

[ZZ Song]

Hello,

I am just getting started in my REI journey. I've been reading books and listening to podcasts and following different successful investors online. However, I do still have a lot of questions. I have tried reaching out to some investors to try and get a mentorship, many of them say they offer coaching. What are your thoughts on this? I understand wanting to get paid for your knowledge and experience but a part of me also get a scam vibe from it as well. Anyone here done those coaching before or what are your thoughts on this? Thank you!
