Good afternoon everybody my name is Russell Im 19 years old and currently attending austin community college. Today I wanted to ask, what are some of things that real investors must do, but don't really feel like doing or don't have the time to do and would pay someone else to do it. I recently found a mentor and I want to help him out in his business, already agreed on posting some signs. Just need some other ideas so that I can offer the most I can. Thank you in advance for your answers. Russell

You're welcome @Russell Ballard Jr! I will play Devil's Advocate and disagree with Jacob on the payment issue -- if your mentor is a busy person (as most successful investors are), time is money, and outsourcing smaller tasks for pay is a good business decision. I worked for free to learn when I was younger, because sometimes that's a good business decision, too; just don't rule out that you can get paid for this kind of work.
