Just from what I learned already I figure it would have taken me a very long time to learn, if at all, because if you don't know what to ask and when to ask it you will never ask and if you use the Internet or other methods you might never find the question or relate, and not know to ask the question and a single mentor would either not think to tell you or assume you already know.It is the same as with my Merchant Marine license I had to have minimum of 1440 days underway with 720 days on vessels before I could take the test but even though I had been at sea I would not have passed the test without paying Houston Marine for the test prep which cost $$$All of these endorsements from the United States Coast Guard are required and after paying for the courses the USCG costs for the actual endorsements at $165 min each. 1600 ton Master $9,500 STCW $1,900.00 Able Bodies Seaman $799 Advanced Firefighting $799 RADAR $799 Proficiency in Rescue/Lifeboat $999 So to get my license I had to spend $14,796.00 and I lost sea time to automatically renew, after 10 years of sailing, when my parents were sick and died in 2007.  

I'm really big on providing mentors, after school programs, teaching financial discipline and wealth management, so I've considere wats of integrating these.What are the ways that you give back and make a positive difference in the world through your business?

I want to have a lucrative career in investing and need a good mentor.

Go to some of your local REIAs/Meetups and meet some seasoned investors, maybe you can partner with someone, or even better, develop a mentoring relationship.As far as determining equity, you can get that info from a real estate agent, OR when you are pulling your list for marketing, you can filter by percentage of equity. 

@Nathan Schuline Many successful real estate investors educate themselves and just surround themselves with like minded people/mentors... the real players ....in real time, in the real world....then just do it... find a way to make it happen!

I'll be working with 2 top producers in my area(Southern California)as my mentors and I'm looking forward to starting a succesful business. 

While nothing is impossible, Carlton Sheets is probably not the best mentor if your aspirations are in the commercial sector.
