Education/degree for RE investing?

Hi everyone,

I've been in the military since I was 19 (I'm 26 now) and because of being stupid for a while I don't have any higher education to speak of. I have since figured out the error of my ways and have enrolled into college to get a BA. My end goal is to be a full time multi-family real estate investor.

My question is what type of degree would be the most useful to an investor? Right now I am on the pace towards either an economics or accounting BA. I'm not sure which BA to get yet. I chose these because I figured these would be handy with knowing the economy of my investing area and running my own books.

Also, would it be worth getting my real estate license? I'm not really familiar with what use this would be to an individual investor.

Thanks for any reply's!
