My passion is the Real Estate market, and I particularly love real estate investing.

These were real people just like me talking about there passion for real estate investing.

Just some food for thought from someone who used to kinda sorta be in your situation in his earlier 20's and where I think my head would be on making a decisions like that....Now that having been said...passions change...so if real estate is your dominating passion ( And I mean for more than the past week) then by all means change your goals without fear of regret.

My background is in biomedical sciences, but my passion is in business and connecting with people of all sorts of backgrounds.
