General Questions About Profession

Hi,

I'm interested in doing real estate as a career, and for one of our assignments in class our professor has asked us to write a memo based on our interview with a full-time person who is in our interested profession. I was wondering if anyone could help me out and reply to me through this thread or email answering the questions listed below. It would greatly help me beyond words.

Thank You,
Tu Nguyen
