Working in real estate while starting to invest
I'm thinking of getting out of my work in telecommunications and try to find a investor in CA to work for that I can learn under and work my butt off for. Is that something that people do. Is there people in the industry that are willing to have an employee that want to learn while they work. I need about 100,000 a year to stay afloat and invest at all in CA. Is this a good idea, does anyone in northern California willing to do this.
Would it be more enticing for someone to do this if I signed a contract to invest in there deals for a certain amount of years. A worker that someone is already paying for that will put money back into there deal. I'm thinking that must be a thing somewhere. If this isn't realistic who is the unrealistic people who would take me on.
No matter what I'll find the way just like all the rest of the investors here but learning and working at the same time seems to make a lot more sense.
