really depends on what niche an agent is in.when I sold real estate I was a land specialist..so my week days were spent in the morning getting to the golf course by 10am finishing about 3pmgo home.. check my message machine ( remember those)  eat dinner then at about 7pm ( after everyone was done with dinner) hit the phones for about 1 hour setting up appointments for the weekend showings. 

I would start by going to a local Real estate investor meeting and invite a experience landlord to lunch/dinner and ask them if they need some help.There is always this ultimate beginner guide to help you get startedhttp://www.biggerpockets.com/real-estate-investing

I think it can make Thanksgiving dinner or social gatherings awkward if something goes wrong.

Even if you can't get a group together, I'd be happy to meet up for coffee/dinner/drinks etc.Keep me posted.

I would be happy to share details sometime at one of our monthly meetings or meetup for dinner.

A lot of misinformation in the previous responses, but as usuall Wayne is the winner winner chicken dinner! 

Hey if they want to pay a week late all the time with a late fee I'll take the late fee and go out to dinner.

Will be watching over my chipotle dinner tonight. 

I listen to audiobooks when I'm driving, listen to podcasts cooking dinner, etc. but I still have time set aside for analyzing deals and looking for properties.Right now, if I was to master a single REI book, I'd pick something that's suited to the current market.

My group is planning to have dinner together on Thursday but that's about all we have set on our schedule.
