Quitting my job to become a RE Agent
Hello BP, I am planning on resigning from my current job and pursue the career of a Real Estate Agent. I am not happy in my current position, although the money and benefits are good, I feel as if I am not reaching my full potential, and do not fill my purpose in my current field. I know I’ll be going hungry for a while, and it will set be back on my RE investing and FI journey, but I am confident I will be happier in a agent position. I currently have about 3 months of savings for expenses put back, and I plan on having that up to at least 6 months worth before making the switch. I am 23 years old so I want to make the change while I’m young, even in these uncertain times. Does anyone have any tips or advice while I go through this process of receiving my license and transitioning careers? Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
