Who else think mentors or over rated

[Jimmy Thomas]

Whats up with the investors/mentors? Their all talk to me  .... Either they want thousands of dollars or want you to have experince  just to give you tips you can find online and in books ...  If i was a verteran investor, i would kindly take on students and mentor them through deals, so they could learn hands on and also i would be taking 60% of the deals profits i help them with, which will give them more motivation to do it on their own, and keep 100%.... Someone need to mentor the mentors ,they forgot where they came from

I have always thought that a "mentor" was not someone who was paid.If they are paid they are a teacher, coach, instructor or perhaps partner but not a mentor.
