Your friends not using you isn't a big deal but this post is a red flag for your lack of social skills.

Looking to connect, find a mentor, and contribute my current skills to an experienced real estate investor/agent/wholesaler in hopes of developing new ones and starting my own business in the future.

It’s a crucial skill, and one that is needed to be able to make quick decisions in a hot market

I prefer to be passive which let’s me earn more money with my skills.

I had few if any marketable skills, or at the very least had no idea how to market the abilities which I did possess.

@Jack SzalasnyI am in need of a GC, but I can use all skills

now if you do demo , the skill level is much lower than a carpenter , their pay would be around $17 an hour .

I've worked with developers, owners, contractors, and architects on projects including new construction, ADU's, soft stories, retrofits, rehabs, horizontal and vertical additions, and more!
