Learning from BP Or from guru?

[Sky Mikesell]

It is rare I post questions on here. However since I signed up for BP I have been fascinated by the fact everyone is learning here. I wanted to write a blog post on it but thought I would employ all of you for some feedback. I got trained in real estate investing 19 years ago LBBP (life before bigger pockets) and am still learning but I got trained by what everyone would consider a guru. I have a few questions just feel free to answer the ones applicable to you or all of them :) My question for all of you seasoned or not investors... Since the existence of BP do you believe you will not need to be trained by a "guru"? Those of you trained by gurus .... Was BP around when you went the guru route? If BP was around would you have just stayed here to get your education? How long do you think you will need to be on BP until you feel you are a qualified investor? I have left out my personal opinion on this topic because i am sincerely curious to hear the feedback.
