Getting my real estate license

Well this isn't really a success story..... yet. I've been working in the aviation industry for 15 years now. It's really amazing how I've basically spent the entire time living paycheck to paycheck, excited to get a $1 hr raise nearly every year, thinking "ok, that extra $1 is pretty good", only to not change much except the amount of stuff I own. I got interested in real estate about 10 years ago but didn't really take it to far. About a year ago I decided I was done with the extra $1 raise every year and waking up at 4:45am to get ready for a job I didn't want to go into anyway. Started listening to the podcast, started reading the books......... and just sat down for the first night of the Georgia Salesperson precourse to get started getting my real estate license. No turning back now. Thanks BP

I'm actually doing the same thing! It's nice to know someone else is taking the same route that I am. I figure getting that commission will always be an added bonus in any transaction!
