I got the letter back from the Real Estate Council that I can "challenge" my real estate course. And frankly, I can either challenge my broker's course or I can challenge my real estate trading (salesperson's) course. But do I really need the "status" of being an associate broker? I'm not going in there with the attitude that I want to "be somebody" in the real estate business. I'm going in there with the plan of selling my mother's house, flipping a few ends and then getting the hell back out the business to pursue my photography.
Yeah, being an "associate broker" sounds so cool, but you know what? It doesn't mean a whole hell of a lot of beans in the business if you're not in there to make money. And I'm not a "Real Estate Tycoon"...a shark in the business. I feel like a minnow in a shark tank every time I step into those waters. It's not a comfortable feeling. The only reason I felt comfortable in the business was because I had two "great whites" (both were Medallion Club members) hanging around as friends and as protectors (if I felt overwhelmed, they were always hanging around to give me a hand). Thanks, Calvin, Thanks Bruce.
Photography's my life...it's what I was meant to do. And the sooner I get my mother's house sold and get my photography business going, the happier I'll be.
