You don’t have to be a genius to make money in real estate. You need to start with a good sized pile of cash, an understanding of buy low/sell high, and a bit of luck. The culture around you says that if you have a lot of money, that’s because you’re smart and did hard work. Real estate is nothing like that, but it will quickly go to your head.
To get a real estate license in my state, it takes 72 hours of education time plus an exam. It’s not exactly a Ph.D. But assholes who make money at it will behave otherwise.
