What Did Your Mentor Teach You

We all have mentors that have shown us the ropes whether it's finance, business, or real estate.

I was wondering about your mentor or mentors. What important lessons did they instill in you in regards to finance/real estate?

Ha! @Karl B. -  Good answer.  BP was one of my go to resources, along with my local real estate group and good old fashioned - school of hard knocks.  Real world experience is what got my career in real estate going.  It's hard to take that leap but once you do, you realize you should've done it sooner.  And even to this day, each new experience I have leads to bigger and bigger deals.  Looking at two $3M properties this week and a $9M property next week.  7 years ago when I started, This was the plan, but now that it's here it still feels unbelievable!
