Tell my boss about working on RE license?

hello BP,

Just  a quick question... I'm a 24 year old accountant working the 8-5 and currently own 2 investment properties with my wife. I have a family friend who has helped me get started and suggest I obtain my real estate license and work for her brokerage (part time), so I could earn extra income, save on commissions for future buys, use the mls, etc. 

My question is, should I tell my boss I'm working on my real estate license? I plan on keeping my full time job and I have already told them about my investing.. Just not sure if I should keep this as "minding my own business" or is this something I should disclose? 

Thank you!

Joe

What would be the point of telling your boss this? I don't think it'd be any of his business just as you wouldn't tell him about every aspect of your life.
