Try and see it from a potential mentor/employer's perspective.

Because I'm recently self-employed, I wasn't able to get pre-approved for a loan large enough to do anything useful with.

I'm trying to grow my portfolio but don't have any money for a down payment nor the ability to get a mortgage since I'm self employed.

It can help you create a short listPopulation growth, employment growth, wage growth, composition of business types are the most important factors in the health of the market.

I like it when new investors ask for partnerships rather than employment.

The whole time I grew up, I was told, "grow up, go to college and get a good job" or "go to the military because employers value military experience."

But, if the employer already budgeted for 10/hour and the government adds an extra 5/ hr then the business' bottom line is not affected, so therefore the price should not have to raise unless to do so due to "natural" occurring inflation.
