Look, if you are just starting out, all of this can be hard.  There is a lot to learn, unfamiliar terminology, and so many different things that you feel that you need to do now.  From researching what you own, contacting oil and gas operators about producing wells that you just learned about, to going through probate, to getting YOUR estate in order for the next generation.  The good thing is you don't have to figure it out all at once.  It is a journey and as I like to say, it is a marathon, not a sprint. We speak with a listener and fellow mineral owner, Barb Rankin, who is just starting out on her mineral rights an royalties journey.  From the biggest challenges to the biggest successes, how to go about getting help and finding the right attorney, landman, or engineer, to some of the most helpful resources out there for mineral rights and royal owners.  You won't want to miss this one because even if you are a seasoned pro, there are some great tips and resources that we talk about in this episode.  As always, show notes with links to the resources mentioned in this episode can be found at mineralrightspodcast.com
