Best Jobs To Have While Investing?

John Halverson

Hello Investors,

While getting started investing, I have heard that many still have full time jobs. I was wondering what jobs would give me an advantage when I begin investing. Or what kinds of jobs are easy to do while leaving time for investments.

Thankyou

@John Halverson

Honestly, I feel like you can have any job and still invest in real estate. It all depends on your drive. As an old saying goes, "We make time for things we WANT to make time for."

So if you really want to go into real estate, you will find the time and the energy to delve into it.

But if I must make a true choice right now. I would say any job that you work 12 hours a day but only have to work 3-4 days a week. That is the hours I work at my current job and its very flexible. This gives me more than enough time to find potential investment properties.

Also unionized jobs tend to let you be pretty flexible.
