To some people that’s not that hard but it is a specialized skill.My moms masters in art education had little to do with being a very successful RE agent for 30 years.My sisters degree is anthropology, she’s the manager of a compliance and anti-fraud division of a credit union.You may find the book Set for Life by Scott Trench insightful.
