Possible Property Inspector

Hello, I am a 19 year old full time college student who currently does turnover inspections for a property management company. These inspections are pretty superficial, taking only about 1hr and make about $85. As I want to increase my income in order to buy my first investment property, I have thought of becoming a licensed inspector. While I do know being an inspector is not what I want to do as a career, I was thinking during my next 3 years in college I could work weekends and summers in order to boost revenue. Is this a feasible idea? I know there is an initial investment of time and money so I was just seeking advice as to see if this was a smart plan, or if I am better off seeking opportunities elsewhere.
