Should I Get a Real-Estate Licence in The NYC /Northern NJ Area?

[Gregory DeRosso]

First Post FYI. 

I been reading and listening to tons of material and I can't get a market specific material. I am probably skipping ahead but do you think it's worth it to get my RE licence in NY or preferably NJ (My target areas). In most likelihood (after convincing the wife), the focus will be BRRRR.

Opinions and Butt whipping welcome.
