Hi there,
I would say carry on if you have the resources to do so and expect little or nothing in return. Your ethnicity/background also matters as well depending on location, also consider small or bottom of the barrel operators to get a start and keep networking as much as you can, someone you came across along the way can give you a helping hand one day.
