Finding the right PM or partner vs creating one

[Adrian Coleman]

Hey Bigger Pockets fam,

I am a new investor just starting out and trying to network while also attempting to build my rockstar team.

I was wondering if it would be smart to take someone who is motivated and kind of train him into what I'm seeking in a PM when I get to that point?

A short back story:

My ex wife who is remarried has a husband who I think kind of lacks direction in his life.i talked to him about real estate a while ago and he seems to be interested but lacks more than a few fundamentals, mainly the knowledge and training.

I was hoping to invest in his area anyways.... Would it be smart to train him and have him educate his self on the subject?

Investing might be a bit much for him at the time but I think he could be (with a bit of work) a decent PM.

OR

would it be a waste of my time? Should I only seek rockstar when I myself haven't done a deal yet? Or should I invest time into setting him up to PM for me when I do strike a deal in his market?
