How to find a mentor?

I read a magazine a guy said he found Linda Bradford Raschke as his mentor when he started trading. Does anyone know how much would it cost? Anyone tried other mentors? Please share your experience.
 
The best mentor will work with you for free. There motivation is different from those who ask for money, they are more interested in the process as a self satisfying thing for themselves. They are also secure and successful enough to not milk it as a commercial venture. What they look for is how committed you are. Just my personal experience so far.
 
Quote from hermit_trader:

You can achieve anything that you want, once you mentally accept the fact that you can achieve it. If you want success, begin thinking of yourself as a success. The feeling of being successful has to come first. If you have a deep inner conviction that you will always have all that you need, if you actually feel prosperous, it will be so. The only thing that stands between you and what you want from life is simply the will to pursue it and the faith to believe that it is possible. Only your mind sets your limits.

Whether you think you can or you can't, you're already right! :)

If you do a search, their is a recent thread regarding mentor's that's pretty good. I think Scientist did a reply on how he got his mentor as well as many other comments.

I am not such a good networker and communicator .
I am fairly experienced but I know there is a vast knowledge and experience hidden from the public view. I also know there must be guys who got burned trying to help out others.
If someone is looking for a experienced trainee , also a positive person I promise I will be a good student. I will pay a% of a future profits from your method. I am serious.

Which is why most experiences with mentors don't work out, i.e., you're looking for a mentor for the wrong reasons.

The best mentor isn't going to train you to trade some method or other. He's going to teach you how markets work, how to develop and test your own plan, how to trade that plan consistently and flawlessly. Only in this way will you be able to make adjustments to the plan as time passes and conditions change.
