[QUOTE="WestIndianArchie, post: 810985, member: 810"] Commercial real estate is about networks, using your current one, and building out your current one. You can throw a rock and hit someone who has a degree in the stuff and doesn't work in the industry. You'd be better off trying to find a mentor in that field rather than a job. You won't have the energy after a long shift of menial labor to hop on a computer. Fun, but it will essentially be an extended vacation. Unless you learn Korean and parlay that into some sort of import/export opportunity. Teaching by day and trying to do something on the side is a tall order of business. Also fun, but it's dead end work if you look at it that way. There is probably money somewhere in that business, but it won't be working for the Fed. It will be some job that they contract to someone outside of the Fed. It's game over for someone with no skills. That's the sort of business you can essentially start yourself. "Creating experiences" is drumming up customers on one side, and then haggling with providers on the other side. You need a phone and a laptop, and marketing. _________________________ Going back to school is an attractive option, but not a real option. It's more vacation. I also wouldn't learn how to drive a Truck. And I'd avoid all "gig" economy shit as those 300 bucks you make on Uber is you trading away your real time to do some real shit. 1. Learn a trade - weld - carpentry - plumbing - hvac - auto A community college program won't be too expensive - plus those are real skills that you can use all over the country/world. I believe that every man that goes to college should also learn a trade. Even if you never go into the trades, there will be plenty of times in your life where knowing any of the above will save your ass. 2. Learn to program - A significant portion of developers are self taught. That gravy train will end as more 1st world countries ship the low level work to 2nd and 3rd world countries. 3. Learn how to SELL. This is an evergreen skill and applies to many industries. The people at the top of every society are persuaders first and foremost. 4. Learn how to write better You're fresh out of school. You could write papers for people in school. This is what lazy students pay for papers. [URL]https://grademiners.com/prices[/URL] As the writer, you'd get half of that. As the business owner, you'd get half of that mostly for doing great SEO for customers, and putting up craig's list ads for writers. good luck. WIA [/QUOTE]
