Quote from @Nicholas L.:
@Ryan Larsen
are you already working in a W2?
the only reason to become a PM is if you want to be a PM as a career. if you do, that's great.
but if you just want to do some kind of short term stint as a PM to help you invest... i don't think that's necessary.
that's like saying, i'll go become a loan officer for a bit to learn lending. no need. that's what the professionals are for.
i'd work in whatever job you can make the most money in.
Hey Nicholas. Thank you for the thoughts! Yes I have a great W2 job, just graduated college looking to get out of the renting game.
No we are not wanting to be PM for a career. But I have seen opportunities to be a on sight PM at a steeply discounted rental rate. Those seem like a great opportunity to save even more money while gaining some useful insight. You bring up a great point though, we don't want to get consumed by PM stuff, just lean enough about it to one day know how to get a good one.
