Looking for a BFF lol

Hello everyone,

All my life I’ve been dreaming of being a “landlord” it always sounded really cool to me but I was raised by parents who worked. My dad was an immigrant and worked for less than minimum wage and mom always taught me to stay away from debt and pretty much work until I can’t.. because of life struggles and not going to college I joined the military and deviated from my dream.. now I’m a home owner and support my dad (who is disabled and now in college) and wife who is also in college.. I recently attended a seminar about investing and became extremely motivated.. gym at 4am because I can’t sleep motivated.. I started readying a book (I don’t read) watching videos and listening to podcasts every time I’m in the car. But since I support 2 adults and 2 rescue dogs money Is very tight.. saving has been extremely tough.. I learned to work on cars because I can’t afford the maintenance on 3 cars. Ok this is turning into a sob story so let me stop lol I say all this to say I’m looking for a friend. Not a handout. Someone who is willing to donate their valuable time and mentor me. Books and podcast keep me motivated but I’m a hands on learner and have too many people counting on me to fail right now. I need to see the process and ask questions in real time to really understand. I can invest my 401k when it’s my turn.. not much but it’s all the savings I have. So I’m just putting it out there, Anyone looking for a best friend (or assistant) in Southern California? Lol
