careers to investing
I understand starting off that you need a job to get started investing and you probably will need to keep it for a while until you really establish your portfolio. I am still in high school and am debating my career paths as I know I want to work in real estate, just hopefully one day make the switch to a full time investor. I have been thinking of becoming a realtor right after high school to establish my connections and grow a team. I have also thought of going into the more W2 role such as working as an analyst or even working a W2 outside of real estate just to gain capital to buy these investments. Any thoughts or advice?

What do you like to do? What would you like to study and learn? I would suggest that you find that out first and do the job that aligns with what you want. The real estate part will come with time and education.
