Pros n cons of investing while being a licensed agent

[Rickey Wallace]

Hey all u happy ppl! New to the site *raises hands to accept applause*, thank u. I use to b a RE agent back in my good ole days but now, I'm looking to get back into RE w/ investing on the mind. I've heard advice backing up both but I'd like a further detailed, preferably unbiased opinion about the question: is it better/worse to have a RE license while investing in one's own RE personal wealth gaining? What kind of pitfalls r there to look out for if u do have a license? R there any legal qualms to worry about? I'm considering relicensing in the near future but if the signs point more to "no", I might stop that plan. Thanks in advance!
