I spent entirely too many years giving this job my time, attention, and frankly, by the end, it felt like I’d sold my soul to the highest bidder just to validate using my education and “making a difference.” What that difference is now? I truly don’t know. Did I ever make a difference? I thought I did at one point, but once the agency began to evolve and change just for the sake of change, not discernible progress with proven positive results, I knew that any good had been undone.

So sorry you’re feeling this way. It’s hard to look back over your time at a place and leave with so many questions. If you did the work to make a difference, chances are you DID even if you don’t realize. 🙏

Wishing you the best in your future career endeavors. May you be refreshed, energized, and in a place where your effort can be recognized and felt.

I'm sure that you did make a difference. The thing about these companies is that they don't care about their employees. They will burn you out and not even think twice about it.

For any of you real estate investors, what tools or sources did you learn from when getting started. Can’t find a mentor currently so want to find some highly recommended books or videos. If focused on the tri-state area (NY, NJ, Long Island mainly) that would be even better. My hope is to buy and rent out a apartment while also owning a house and house hacking that by renting part of it out. Trying to understand all the steps, traps, and how to find if it’s a good investment.
