Is part time practical?

Hi All!

Firstly, huge thank you to all that contribute here! I've been lurking around these forums and some of the advice that I've come across has been invaluable, so thanks very much! 

Here is my situation; I helped found a company, then sold it and I'm currently pending my final payment therefore, I'm in a fortunate position to put some money to work. 

HOWEVER... from all of the research/reading I've done there is one common theme that continually comes up in RE world, the greatest investors only close on deals that are GOOD deals (Which can be hard to find in todays market!) that got me thinking, how can I find these good deals? That in turn has led me to wholesaling, which in theory is great, keep those off-market deals that fit your criteria and wholesale those that don't. 

Wholesaling appeals to me as at heart, I am sales guy, and my expertise lies in doing then growing sales operations. Therefore, I have no problem with the hustle aspect, but my only concern is as I'm currently on my earn out, which means I have fairly dedicated day job that I literally can't leave. My question is, is part time wholesaling practical?
