Ever since then, I started reading, looked for new content, and researched like something has possessed me.In a way, Real Estates sparked a light of ambition in my heart and ignited my passion tofocus and learn about something I can enjoy doing.With the momentum I gained from wanting to study real estate, I absolutely dominated all my classes in school this semester.I feel like going to school and completing my undergraduate in actuarial science to become anactuary is the safest route to take, but there is a voice in the back of my mind telling me to start working as an agent.I have completed all of my real estate classes for the license test, and will be taking my test shortly.Although it may seem like a safer option, going to school means I will not be able to invest or create any income for myself for 2-3 years.As well as accumulating what we know of as "bad debt" such as student loans.There are many pros and cons factored into both sides of the argument, and I just wanted some advice from Realtors, and anyone on the BP forum.Thank you for your precious time!

I am a recent college graduate, I am extremely passionate about real estate investing as a business - this is not a hobby for me - My background is in finance, I am a very analytical person, I truly enjoy analyzing deals, crunching numbers and most importantly finding creative ways to maximize profit and minimize expenses.
