Am I wasting my time?
Hi Everyone,
My name is Thomas and I just turned 24. I have been an auditor for about a year now and currently working towards the CPA exam. By the end of 2015 I should be finished.
Real Estate is where my passion lies. I have done plenty of research, networking, attend monthly meetings, etc - and am currently involved in a multifamily deal. My plans are to build a team and start my own business around investing in multifamily apartments. After I obtain the CPA, I plan to obtain a position as a Commercial Real Estate Financial Analyst at a bank, investment firm, REIT, or similar organization and during the same time start working on my own deals.
My question is: Should I just finish getting my CPA license since I have came this far already - or stop and focus on real estate only? The work is not directly related to real estate, and because I don't see a future for myself in accounting, it seems as if I am wasting my time.
Thank you
