Has anyone ever shadowed or apprenticed with a mentor before starting? (Denver, CO)

[Braden Silverman]

I am a student who just started up my own REI enterprise and have so many questions. Since this is such a new experience for me I am wondering if its appropriate to shadow or assist a more experienced investor before starting out on my own. Please let me know if this is a normal arrangement or... if you are in Denver and looking for an assistant please let me know.
