Why do we not do as a good of a job policing ourselves as we do teaching others how to do real estate investing correctly?

I attribute much of my success to the principles of how he teaches us to "look" at things, treat people and handle circumstances.  

Tell him if he teaches you what a good investment looks like to him that you'll find him deals that fit his purchase criteria. 

have not heard of that one.. you can buy any guru's written material tapes and CD's on E bay for 50 bucks.. just look there first.. then decide if you need one on one.I have seen people do well with these.. but they would do well in any setting.some of the real hands on one's that charge BIG bucks and teach you in person over the course of a year .. many of those students turn out and excel. 

The classes teach you how to pass the test, the ins and outs of real estate are learned through experience. 

I am a 17 year old looking for any successful real estate investor that would be willing to teach me about how to invest and everything I need to know or do.

Looking for people to help teach a newbie some tricks.

They have some high priced classes ($300) on the weekends teaching what you can learn on the internet for free.

I put most of my focus on "Fixing and Flipping" distressed homes and teaching other how to "Get in the Game" so they can enjoy the satisfaction you get from this lifestyle.

It's good to know the stuff they teach, the knowledge you will acquire is very helpful.
