Regular job is in the way

[Jerry Weber]

Question for those investors who no longer go to a regular job everyday and instead invest for a living.  Did you find it frustrating that the job held you back in a sense because of the time it took away from networking, marketing, etc.?

Don't get me wrong, I'm grateful that my job pays my bills and helps pay for my marketing. At the same time though it's really in the way and interfering with my ability to devote total focus to investing. One example is since I work nights I can't attend a good majority of my local REIA meetings as most of them meet on weeknights. It also doesn't help that I can't stand my job and wanted to quit ages ago.

Venting on here helps though, please share your similar experiences.
