As you can see I'm a real estate broker.. residential... In a HCOL city. I'm trying to find an "easy" in to finance that pays well. I'd describe myself as a generalist. I thrive in strategic thinking and general ideation. I'm a people person, but also hate people (use that how you will). I have a BA and an MA but in stupid liberal arts focuses (dumb 21 year old kid...)

Last thing, I want a little work/life balance.. I have a kid.

What jobs should I be applying for?

Can we talk designations a minute? I'm at the agency level now and would like to move to a company underwriter. If I'm going to add some designations to my portfolio, which would be the best? I don't think jumping right into CPCU is the right way to go. I can earn my CIC and then pursue a CRM or CPRM. I don't think I want to do the CISR since that won't do much for me if/when I move to underwriter. Is there something else I should consider? Do designations matter at the company level?
