Hello All, I have been off this board for a while, i been out of investing for a little over 2 years for various reasons (career changes, and divorce) and i feel like i am in a good place financially to invest again, so i wanted to get some opinions.4 years ago i got out of the Military and became a Realtor, i worked as a Realtor for a while, but i never really made decent money and worked my butt off, i barely managed 25k/yr, so i decided to make a change to my life and went back to school and now i am a Registered Nurse after going through a fast track education program.
