college/starting in REI
Hello everyone, I'm Juan Marino. I'm a senior at the University of Arkansas and I'm about to finish my industrial engineering degree. So when I chose my major I never heard about real state, or maybe I just didn't pay attention to it. Now having an internship at a big corporation I realized that yes I could make decent money with my degree choice, but it will take me plenty of years to reach that financial goal I have. I will have to work plenty of hours a day and vacations will not happen very often. So now that I see that real state is a possibility to reach my goals and enjoy a nice life I'm leaning towards it.
I'm planning to take couple classes of real state these last two semesters at the university, I guess my question is if that will be actually worth it to do. Just wanted to know if sucessful people in real state did go through a Real State related major in college or if that might affect how sucessful I could be in the future in this business
