What do you do for a living??

thought would be good insight to see different aspects of what we all do for our income. I myself am a small business owner, I own and operate a few franchises does here in Miami, been looking to get into something else and build more diverse income stream. Love real estate but down here it's extremely overpriced.

Would love to hear from everyone, specially small business owners, maybe bounce some ideas and network with eachother.

Sometimes I sit in chairs but sometimes I stand on them to change a light bulb or just because.

This month, I'm a Registered Nurse.

Next month, I sit for Family Nurse Practitioner boards.

Rolex better step up their production game, because I'm gonna be in the market for another watch in the near future.

Good luck on your boards!!
We need all the NPs we can get

On a side note, take as many practice exams as you can.
They’ll get you in the groove for the real thing.
