getting licensed

So I got sick of those calls where they didnt have enough equity for me to buy but they still needed to sell. I guess after the 20th one or so, I thought hey why am I throwing this money away and ending the calls with "what you need is a realtor, let me give you the number of XXX. - good luck!". So I decided if I can't buy it, I can stil sell it. Can't hurt right?

So - I've talked to a few brokers. I really just need a place to hang a license so I can go about doing my own thing legally. I've taken the classes and test and am all set. I've found a broker that I like.

Before I do this, I guess I'm looking for some last minute advice. Is there any reason (besides disclosure, which I understand and don't see as a major setback), that I should not do this? Is there some way being licensed could harm my goal of investing? Has anyone done this and regretted it? Anyone that did not, and wishes they did?
