    In the mortgage loan origination profession.

    The schooling has been completed. I passed both the national and state exams, and now there is a "potential" offer on the table. He just needs to get approval from his director. I'll know by Friday.

    Pretty exciting stuff!

    Nice - congrats, dude! My wife and her family have been in the industry for decades. I am very familiar with a lot of companies around here (i.e. good and bad), so if you ever have questions about any companies, hit me up.

    Good luck man! Hopefully you are blessed with work! BTW, the best time to probably get into it. Housing is actually starting to climb.

    Don't you know that home improvements generally don't improve the value of the home as much as the cost of the improvements?

    That being said.... windows are one of the items that, during home inspection, often are flagged for one thing or another. This is where you make your sales pitch.

    I'm always up for beer. Or down. Depends how you want to look at it.

    Regardless, I'm always ready to drink some beer.
