What was your regular day time job while you started acquiring properties?

I started flipping mobile homes when I was 18. I worked in a furniture factory 12-16 hours a day in the summer and then went to the project after getting off work to work another 4 hours. It was a heck of a time, but part of the reason I am ahead of the curve now at 30. Most of my adult life has been spent in the military, but now I am out. Just curious what other people did while in the building phase before jumping off the regular 9-5.
