If someone were deciding on changing his or her career from a lower paying job in order to get into real estate investing, what occupations in particular would be a proper pursuit? Obviously Real Estate Agent would be one. What are an addition "TOP TEN" occupations that would help one to maintain a family and invest in real estate by being closely related to REI?

@Joshua Cochran Loan officer, Contractor, home Inspector, insurance agent, property management (employee), CPA for Investors. I recently became an agent to get out of my job, it isn't easy but it will be rewarding. I have never been comfortable talking to strangers and in general I'm not a good salesman, YET. I know that to be successful you have to learn to talk to people and get over your fear of rejection, that's why I decided to just jump in!
