Speed and efficiency.

I feel having one would allow me to greatly increase the speed at which I can jump into investing and I can possibly be beneficial through my work ethic and willingness to take on more risk, but I'm not sure how I would go about finding someone, or if this is even realistic to attempt for someone in my position.Thank you if you read this far and for any advice people are able to offer.
