Hey Guys,

Long story short I was injured at work a few years ago and I have nerve damage in my arm so I am being retrained from workmans compensation for a new career because I can no longer work in the construction trades industry.

I want something to do with real estate but I do not want to be an agent, I was thinking about going to school for Business at least for general education just to learn basic skills.

I would like to invest in real estate property of course for my own pleasure and I will do but if im getting schooling and training ALL PAID for and paid while attending I might as well use it to my advantage.

Workmans comp is also willing to place me at any job place that is willing to train me and pay the same as I used to make, so do you guys have any suggestions of organizations that I can advance VERY HIGH over time

I was thinking developing , what other career choices can you guys throw at me? Something working for someone else but can branch off to my own gig when I go big.

I've always had an amazing interest in real estate since I was 14, I've been on these forums for 5 years and now I'm 23.

I have the drive and resources now and need to act.

I also made my first deal a year ago and own a 4 year old condo so investments from here on out.

Thanks guys I know I blabber but I need help, Im confused , its a hard time!
