Lending Jobs vs Analyst Jobs?
Hi All,
I currently work in health insurance and the career is a nightmare. I just recently house hacked my first duplex and I am all about that real estate life. I have been all over the internet looking for real estate career paths that would also benefit me in my personal investing! I am curious to see what everyone thinks on this forum? I am really only finding jobs that are in the analyst category. Is that something anyone has experience in? I have a strong financial background and my thoughts are that lending would be the next best step for me, but I am unsure which way to go. Any input/feedback on this dilemma would be great, thank you in advance!
