My first sit down with an experienced investor

[James Boprie]

I've recently been put in touch with an experienced investor who owns "A lot" of properties. We're supposed to meet and sit down for lunch within the next few days. 

On my end I'm trying to see if he'd be a decent mentor who I can get some face time with, especially since I have no experience in the real estate game. I'd like to keep the conversation light but focused on real estate. So with that being said, what kind of questions should I ask? How should I prepare myself? I have a few ideas in my head but I don't want to waste his time or mine.

give the waiter your credit card before you sit down.. so there is no question that your paying for lunch.
