I Agreed To Be A Mentor To Someone From Here Today - Will You?

I updated my score.org profile because of my move and as I was doing it I was called to take a step and a stand. I have complained about the sketchy coaches, gurus and such but haven't done anything about it.

Today, I realized if everyone who has the experience and financial ability each agreed to help just one person get their first deal AND DO IT AT NO COST like Score does we could really make a difference.

So, I agreed to mentor someone who contact me awhile ago. We met this evening for dinner at the club and we set down some basic ground rules. I will leave it up to them to disclose or not who my new mentee is.

I won't charge him for my time. I won't fund any of his deals. I won't do the work for him. We meet each Wednesday evening at the club. Etc. We discussed the ground rules, shook hands, had dinner and got to work.

I will post more about our first encounter on my blog as soon as it is back up. The technicians are looking at it now.

Now, I know many here have plenty of experience but are busy building their holdings and managing their day to day business.

But, I know there HAS to be others like me here. People who have the experience and the financial ability to NOT CHARGE for their time to help the newbies get started.

So, who else will step up and give a hand up to a newbie?
