Getting agent license in Texas

I'm a full time employee who travels a lot and has a crazy schedule. RE investing is a passion and the way I see creating a better life for my family. All that being said, I am going to get my agents license. My job doesn't allow for traditional schedule so I was looking at the self paced online courses. Anyone have experience with these?? Tips or advice?? I see that I must be sponsored by a broker for a period of maybe 4 years?? Any brokers allow me to work on my own time? or if I am bringing in deals and cutting the broker up to 50% on agent commission then its still good for me. I get the experience, and only pay half of what a traditional commission would be. These are just my thoughts as I look at the MLS and see many deals I want to make offers on but don't want to bother an agent with my 5 low offers per day.

Thanks for the input!
