Joshua Milam What to major in College for RE investing?
28 July 2022 | 147 replies
Quote from @Jerryll Noorden: Hi Jerryll, I'm going to "Think outside the box" on this one.You must have a high IQ, which always helps, and you must have certain inborn personality traits that allowed you to co-do both the schooling, and the real estate in an effective manner.That makes you more alone on the IQ tail (others are not able to make decisions as quickly or at all faced with the same information).So outside the box--maybe think about if you had not  (paid for--if you paid for) all of that schooling, and instead had embarked on your real estate business at 19 years of age.Not with the hind site you have now, but the foresight of you as a 19 year old.I am going to guess that you would be in similar financial standings as now, or even better.Although without the college, maybe the trip would not have been as satisfying (math can be fun) and if you enjoyed the prestige of being a Rocket Scientist, then nothing can replace that (you have to jump through their school hoops).
