Young investor needs advice.

Alright BiggerPockets I once again turn to you for advice. If you look at my past posts it will say how I had to goto grad school and what not. While now that bridge is cleared and there is no more graduate school in my future just real estate.

My question comes in terms of getting real estate licenses. I have heard you can get into sticky situations with it in terms of investing and that is what worries me. I am in need of steady income and income that is more that minimum wage because now that I am not in school the parents are going to stick me with the bills. I am working as a birddog and will hopefully have some leads coming through in the future but I just would like to be safe with money as I'm only 22.

I can see the upsides of having all my licenses but I dont want it to minimize the effectiveness of my investing because of rules I would have to oblige by. Thanks in advance for any input!

I hope this is the right spot for this...

I, personally, would not get a real estate license because my agent I use kicks butt and is investor friendly. I do not find a the need for a license.

But if you did get your license, your tag line could be:

"Your house will not just be Sold, it will be DuSold!"
