Get Out of the Rat Race

Sheldon Moore
Posted

I am 23yo and very much dislike my accounting job earning only 40k/yr salary.

I am seriously considering my real estate license and becoming an agent to do 2 things:

1. Learn everything I can about real estate

2. Increase my income to then invest back into real estate instead of being capped at 40K.

I know I must build career capital, talked about in the book (So good they can’t ignore you) but I want to build that in real estate.

I’ve heard mixed reviews on doing this so I thought I would get a BiggerPockets perspective on becoming an agent or not!! Thoughts?

Thanks in advance!
