Questions to ask mentor

id ask them what advice they wished they had heard/heeded when they were starting out.

I'm guessing you want their opinion on what strategy will get you to your goals ASAP.
Ask for their ideas and then assess the risk.
If you ask 10 different mentors, most responses will likely be different.

Personally, I'd say to go with the most aggressive strategy within your risk profile.
