Trying to sell my late mother's apt. , I'm getting a kick out of the real
estate business. Hmmm... no homework, no yelling at rowdy adolescents, more
pay (and getting paid on time...) My sister says I should take a course. And
then clean out my archives of worksheets and stacks of textbooks... One real
estate agent is an architect - so maybe it's a doable career choice despite
my M.A. and eons of studying. So why did I invest in so much studying, when
my high-techie son earns so much better, BA"H.
