Is being a Real Estate Investor a respectable profession?
Hello, I personally don't see anything wrong with it, but I've heard many investors are seen as greedy and people who prey on distressed people. Any thoughts?

Unfortunately the profession is sullied by a disproportionate share of quacks, charlatans, and snake oil salesmen. There are plenty of honest and respectable investors around, but the highly visible morons ruin things for the bulk of honest folks.
