00:00:00
So not many people know this,
00:00:01
but I actually did go to college
00:00:03
and I actually
00:00:04
graduated as an accountant.
00:00:06
And if you would ask me,
00:00:07
if you were to start all over again,
00:00:09
would you have done everything the same?
00:00:11
The answer is absolutely not.
00:00:14
I would have not done accountant.
00:00:16
It took me about four years.
00:00:18
And in those four years,
00:00:18
I could have made so much money if I
00:00:20
found this list before.
00:00:22
So in this video,
00:00:23
I'm gonna give you
00:00:23
guys the seven best jobs
00:00:26
if you wanna start over again,
00:00:28
whether it's because
00:00:29
you lost your license,
00:00:30
you found out the job you loved
00:00:32
is not really the job you love.
00:00:34
Or for example, you
00:00:35
wanna make more money,
00:00:36
whatever it is, there's
00:00:37
something on this list for you.
00:00:39
And my favorite one is number six
00:00:41
because it's my
00:00:41
favorite, but most importantly,
00:00:43
you can make almost upwards to $500,000,
00:00:47
which is actually a bunch of money.
00:00:48
But there is nothing on this list
00:00:51
that takes more than two years of
00:00:53
schooling or training,
00:00:55
which is massive,
00:00:56
because we're almost
00:00:57
told like the only way
00:00:59
to make a lot of money is
00:01:01
to go to school for a decade.
00:01:03
No, that's not what this list is about.
00:01:05
And most importantly, guys,
00:01:07
if you want more details like the
00:01:08
description of the job,
00:01:09
the salary, the license
00:01:11
you need, all that stuff,
00:01:12
I'm gonna have it linked down below.
00:01:14
But for this video,
00:01:15
what I really wanna do is to tell you
00:01:17
how I would approach this myself.
00:01:19
Like how would I try to
00:01:21
change careers into something?
00:01:23
Because everything is like a
00:01:25
Google away, chat GPT away,
00:01:27
but this way you
00:01:28
actually get some insight
00:01:29
and how I would approach this
00:01:31
and you can basically
00:01:31
try it out for yourself.
00:01:33
So let's get right into this video.
00:01:35
Number one, it's going to be
00:01:36
becoming a real estate agent.
00:01:38
Now, obviously, when I
00:01:39
think about a real estate agent,
00:01:41
I think about someone that makes about 3%
00:01:43
of the purchase price of this home.
00:01:45
And if you sell a home for $500,000,
00:01:48
well, guess what?
00:01:49
That's about $15,000.
00:01:51
Now imagine if you
00:01:53
sold a $10 million home,
00:01:55
that's $300,000,
00:01:57
that's so much money, right?
00:01:58
But who the heck is
00:02:00
going to give a person
00:02:01
that just got their
00:02:02
license a $10 million home
00:02:04
or yet alone a $500,000 listing?
00:02:08
Most of the time,
00:02:09
you're not going to
00:02:10
be able to get it done.
00:02:11
So here is how I would approach this.
00:02:14
First, I would make
00:02:15
long-term investments in clients.
00:02:18
Real estate agents don't just
00:02:20
make money by selling homes.
00:02:21
They also make money by renting homes
00:02:24
and leasing them out, okay?
00:02:25
And guess what?
00:02:26
Every single person that I know,
00:02:29
well, whenever they're renting,
00:02:30
usually they're thinking
00:02:31
about buying in the future.
00:02:33
That's what happened to me, okay?
00:02:34
I had an agent that
00:02:35
helped me find, for example,
00:02:37
a rental in Puerto Rico.
00:02:38
And then that same agent
00:02:40
through the same company
00:02:41
helped me buy a home when the time came.
00:02:43
So you can actually do that, okay?
00:02:45
So you find homes for people,
00:02:47
you usually charge them about a flat fee
00:02:49
of one month's rent.
00:02:51
You make some good money like that,
00:02:52
but you invest in that relationship.
00:02:55
You give them little
00:02:56
gifts and all this other stuff
00:02:57
and you keep their
00:02:58
memory thinking about you.
00:03:00
And when the time comes,
00:03:01
they'll think about
00:03:01
you for buying a home.
00:03:03
The second thing I would do
00:03:04
while I'm basically trying to rent homes
00:03:06
and all that other stuff,
00:03:07
I would try to build a brand, okay?
00:03:10
People don't go online and
00:03:11
just look up, for example,
00:03:12
real estate agent,
00:03:13
and they don't just
00:03:14
call the first number.
00:03:15
They usually look to
00:03:17
people that they see online.
00:03:18
They're actively doing something.
00:03:20
So I personally would basically,
00:03:22
every person that I rent something with,
00:03:25
I would take a picture of them with me
00:03:27
and have them give me a testimonial.
00:03:28
I would record the homes.
00:03:30
I would become an
00:03:31
expert as far as real estate.
00:03:32
I would show a lot of homes.
00:03:33
And then those people
00:03:34
would reach out to me
00:03:35
and I would become an expert
00:03:37
and someone that's
00:03:38
very well known, you know?
00:03:39
Like Grand Court Donut in a sense.
00:03:40
But this whole idea,
00:03:42
I really got it from Graham Stephan
00:03:44
because I think if I'm not mistaken,
00:03:46
that was his approach in the beginning.
00:03:48
And eventually this guy was selling homes
00:03:50
that were worth over a million dollars,
00:03:52
but he first started out by renting homes
00:03:55
and that's a great start.
00:03:57
And the competition is less there also.
00:04:00
And you can make a lot of money doing it.
00:04:01
Number two, a commercial truck driver.
00:04:04
Now I know what you're thinking, okay?
00:04:06
Maybe you don't wanna drive
00:04:07
for hours and hours and hours,
00:04:09
and neither do I, okay?
00:04:11
But if I'm able to get
00:04:12
a job within two months
00:04:13
and start making $5,000 a month,
00:04:16
I mean, that is amazing.
00:04:18
I mean, I was in
00:04:18
school for like four years
00:04:20
to become an
00:04:20
accountant, to hopefully graduate
00:04:22
and make 60 to $70,000 as an
00:04:25
entry-level accountant, okay?
00:04:27
This is much better.
00:04:29
Now I was actually involved
00:04:31
in one of these businesses,
00:04:32
not really directly,
00:04:34
but because I gave someone money
00:04:36
to be able to buy their first truck
00:04:37
and to actually get into the business.
00:04:39
So I have some insight on how this works.
00:04:41
And I also have family that's involved.
00:04:44
Now, the only way I
00:04:45
would actually do this
00:04:46
would be like on a temporary basis.
00:04:49
And here's why, okay?
00:04:50
Yes, you can make a lot of money
00:04:52
within two months or
00:04:52
like six months, okay?
00:04:54
Making $5,000 a month
00:04:56
and the only thing
00:04:57
you have to do is drive.
00:04:58
Well, it sounds too good
00:04:59
to be true because it is.
00:05:00
You have to drive a lot.
00:05:02
And you're also away
00:05:03
from your family a lot.
00:05:04
So I would basically do this
00:05:06
for like four to five years,
00:05:08
make 300 to $400,000
00:05:10
and then just pay off a home and then
00:05:12
call it a day, okay?
00:05:13
But the second way I would
00:05:15
actually go about this is,
00:05:17
well, I would actually
00:05:18
use my money to buy trucks
00:05:21
and to get drivers to drive them.
00:05:23
And the way I understand it
00:05:25
is the way the business works
00:05:26
is these people, they split
00:05:28
the profits, the routes in half.
00:05:30
So if you're making like $5,000 a month,
00:05:33
well, I get 2,500 and you get 2,500.
00:05:36
But guess what?
00:05:37
I'm not doing any of the driving.
00:05:39
Yes, I have the vehicle,
00:05:40
I have the maintenance,
00:05:41
I have everything to take care of,
00:05:42
but this way I don't have to
00:05:45
spend all my time on the road.
00:05:47
So it's a job that I
00:05:48
would do temporarily,
00:05:50
but I would strongly consider it.
00:05:51
Imagine, okay, I'm in college,
00:05:53
instead of being in
00:05:54
college for like four years,
00:05:55
well, what's four times six?
00:05:56
That's about 24.
00:05:58
That's $240,000.
00:06:01
Instead of me graduating
00:06:02
with about $20,000 in debt
00:06:04
and no money.
00:06:05
That's a big difference, right?
00:06:06
Is my math right?
00:06:07
I think it is, right?
00:06:08
Number three is a dental hygienist, okay?
00:06:12
My wife, when I first met her,
00:06:13
she was actually a dentist herself here
00:06:15
in Dominican Republic.
00:06:17
Now she's my wife and
00:06:18
she's the mother of my child
00:06:19
and she's at home and
00:06:20
we're very lucky to have her.
00:06:22
But in Dominican
00:06:23
Republic, like they don't get paid
00:06:25
that much, but in the US specifically,
00:06:27
dental hygienists, man, in two years,
00:06:29
they're making like around $80,000,
00:06:31
which is a lot of money, honestly, okay?
00:06:34
Now they're not really
00:06:34
like full-blown dentists.
00:06:36
They basically do like the
00:06:37
cleaning and the educating
00:06:39
and the X-rays and so on.
00:06:41
But I think that it's such
00:06:43
a good job for the most part
00:06:46
because it does have flexibility.
00:06:47
So here would be my approach.
00:06:49
First of all, I wouldn't
00:06:51
just work for one office.
00:06:53
I would work for multiple offices.
00:06:55
And yes, you could do that.
00:06:56
You could work for
00:06:57
multiple dental offices
00:06:59
and you can make money from each of them.
00:07:01
So if you're doing a high-end
00:07:02
clients or high-end offices,
00:07:04
well, you can make much more than $80,000
00:07:07
and work part-time here,
00:07:08
part-time here, part-time there.
00:07:09
I make a good amount of money.
00:07:11
Number two is I
00:07:12
wouldn't really take this job
00:07:14
as a starter job
00:07:15
because some people do that.
00:07:18
They say, well, I'm gonna
00:07:19
become a dental hygienist first
00:07:21
and then I'm gonna work up
00:07:22
to build in my own office
00:07:24
and then I'm gonna work up
00:07:25
to becoming a whole dentist
00:07:26
and so on, but I
00:07:28
really rather just do this.
00:07:30
And the main reason is
00:07:31
because it takes two years.
00:07:32
And if I were to go to
00:07:33
school for six more years
00:07:34
to become a full-blown
00:07:35
dentist, well, that's $480,000
00:07:38
that I could actually
00:07:39
make being a dental hygienist
00:07:41
for six years, then
00:07:42
instead of being, for example,
00:07:44
we're trying to become a dentist
00:07:45
and graduate with a bunch of debt.
00:07:47
You know, honestly, there
00:07:49
isn't really that much money
00:07:51
that you need to make to
00:07:52
have a pretty good life.
00:07:53
So my approach would be that personally,
00:07:55
I wouldn't be trying to
00:07:56
become a full-blown dentist,
00:07:58
spend six more years in school,
00:08:00
spend $200,000 to do it,
00:08:02
to then finally graduate
00:08:03
and make 200 grand or 300 grand a year,
00:08:06
but then the office hours are a lot
00:08:08
and the flexibility might
00:08:09
not be as great as you think.
00:08:10
So I think it's a really good job.
00:08:12
In two years, making
00:08:13
$80,000, it's amazing.
00:08:15
Now, job number four
00:08:16
is becoming a plumber.
00:08:18
And I think every man should be a plumber
00:08:21
for their own homes, okay?
00:08:22
Everyone should know
00:08:23
exactly how to unclog a toilet,
00:08:26
how to install a toilet,
00:08:27
how to drain a drainage pipe,
00:08:30
how to install a faucet.
00:08:32
All these things are things that we
00:08:34
should know how to do,
00:08:35
and especially how to
00:08:36
install a hot water system.
00:08:38
It sounds complicated,
00:08:39
but trust me, it is not.
00:08:40
Every time I saw a plumber
00:08:42
do it, I would say to myself,
00:08:44
this is difficult,
00:08:45
but it's not impossible
00:08:47
for me to learn how to
00:08:48
do these things, okay?
00:08:49
And guess what?
00:08:50
The way I would approach this is very
00:08:53
simple and very basic.
00:08:54
And obviously, plumbers
00:08:55
make a good amount of money
00:08:57
because although I think that everyone
00:08:58
should be a plumber,
00:09:00
a lot of people do think
00:09:01
it's a job beneath them
00:09:02
and they refuse to actually do it
00:09:04
or have any interest in it, okay?
00:09:05
But because of that,
00:09:07
it's a really good job.
00:09:08
And it is a job that is recession-proof
00:09:10
because even when people
00:09:11
don't have money or jobs,
00:09:12
if something breaks,
00:09:13
they're gonna find the money
00:09:14
to actually fix it up, okay?
00:09:17
Now, the main idea was,
00:09:18
well, I would
00:09:19
actually work for a company,
00:09:20
being a plumber, right?
00:09:21
That way I could do
00:09:22
what they need me to do
00:09:23
and I can make a good amount of money.
00:09:25
That can make me
00:09:26
$50,000 to $60,000 a year.
00:09:28
But most importantly, I
00:09:29
would also work with Airbnbs
00:09:32
and real estate agents and other people,
00:09:35
like normal people, right?
00:09:36
And I would actually work with them
00:09:37
because when I was staying at an Airbnb,
00:09:40
I had the same plumber come twice.
00:09:42
And my understanding is
00:09:43
that this same plumber
00:09:44
is the one that manages
00:09:45
just about all the homes
00:09:47
that this Airbnb owner actually has.
00:09:50
And I could be that too, right?
00:09:51
And this guy just comes in,
00:09:53
installs a hot water machine or whatever,
00:09:55
and he's like $400.
00:09:56
And I'm like, really?
00:09:58
Okay, they make a lot of money, man.
00:10:00
So it's a pretty good job
00:10:02
with a lot of flexibility
00:10:03
where you're able to do your own gigs,
00:10:05
able to work for a
00:10:06
person for fixed money,
00:10:07
and you're also able to
00:10:09
have a good skill at home
00:10:10
so you can fix all
00:10:11
the stuff in your house.
00:10:13
Super important.
00:10:14
Number five, become an electrician.
00:10:17
Now, funny story here, my dad,
00:10:19
before he became a politician,
00:10:21
he was going to be an electrician.
00:10:23
Now, the story does
00:10:24
not have a happy ending
00:10:25
because he ended up dropping out
00:10:27
because he said, "I am
00:10:28
terrified of getting shocked."
00:10:31
Apparently, he got shocked a few times
00:10:32
and he was like,
00:10:33
"Yeah, I am done with this."
00:10:34
He went into a
00:10:35
politician later on and he won
00:10:37
and he did his campaign
00:10:38
stuff, which is great stuff,
00:10:40
but he quit, okay?
00:10:41
But electricians, man, they
00:10:43
make a good amount of money.
00:10:45
And you're able to
00:10:46
become one in two years.
00:10:47
Now, not a master electrician.
00:10:50
That takes, for example, some
00:10:51
mentorship or apprenticeship,
00:10:54
and you get into that later on,
00:10:55
but once you get your electrician stuff,
00:10:57
you're able to start
00:10:58
working and making money,
00:10:59
then you become an apprentice
00:11:00
and you're able to actually become
00:11:01
a master electrician later on.
00:11:04
But there are several
00:11:05
different approaches, right?
00:11:07
One approach is you work for a company.
00:11:09
Let's say, for example,
00:11:10
Con Edison or whatever,
00:11:11
or a local electrician
00:11:13
company in your local area.
00:11:15
Or you can actually work for
00:11:16
other people and help them out.
00:11:18
Here's a personal story, okay?
00:11:20
When about my first home in Puerto Rico,
00:11:23
there was a massive
00:11:24
issue with the electricity.
00:11:25
From the pole, which was
00:11:27
outside and it was underground,
00:11:29
well, there was no
00:11:30
connection to my house.
00:11:32
So in order to get my
00:11:33
house connected to the outside,
00:11:36
we had to dig a six foot hole
00:11:39
and install all the
00:11:40
electrical wiring beneath the ground.
00:11:42
Now, this was gonna cost me about $12,000
00:11:45
and about three months while I waited
00:11:47
for everything to come through
00:11:48
and the license and all this stuff.
00:11:50
But there was this guy and he was like,
00:11:51
hey, I do this all the time.
00:11:54
He charged me $6,000.
00:11:56
It took him a weekend and he did
00:11:58
everything up to code
00:11:59
and everything was perfect, okay?
00:12:01
So imagine that, okay?
00:12:03
A weekend, $6,000, just like that.
00:12:05
There are jobs like that.
00:12:06
And for example, okay,
00:12:08
I'm embarrassed to say this,
00:12:09
but I don't even know how to
00:12:10
fix a light bulb in my house,
00:12:11
okay?
00:12:12
Like I know how to take a
00:12:14
light bulb up, obviously,
00:12:16
but I don't know how to
00:12:16
uninstall the whole thing,
00:12:18
how to turn off all the breakers
00:12:19
and then how to plug
00:12:20
everything back and all.
00:12:21
I don't know how to do that, okay?
00:12:22
But someone doing that,
00:12:24
installing a ceiling fan,
00:12:26
all that stuff, that
00:12:27
could be like $50, $30,
00:12:29
or even more money.
00:12:31
Simple things that take
00:12:32
you like 15, 20 minutes.
00:12:33
You can get on
00:12:34
TaskRabbit and you could actually
00:12:35
do those things and
00:12:36
make some extra money.
00:12:38
And that's pretty good stuff, okay?
00:12:39
I like it a lot.
00:12:40
I'm probably gonna do
00:12:41
a course on electricity
00:12:43
and also a course on plumbing,
00:12:45
not for like trying
00:12:47
to make money purposes,
00:12:48
but just to try to know
00:12:49
all these skills in my home
00:12:51
in case there is an emergency
00:12:52
and I need to get things done.
00:12:53
They take about like two
00:12:54
months or six months, by the way.
00:12:56
They don't take that long.
00:12:56
Number six is my favorite.
00:12:58
I told you, it's a financial advisor.
00:13:01
And I love the idea of counseling people
00:13:03
and helping people with their finances
00:13:05
and helping them make money.
00:13:07
But there's this ethical thing with me
00:13:09
that for some reason,
00:13:10
I just cannot overcome.
00:13:12
And when you actually try to
00:13:14
become a financial advisor,
00:13:15
there are several different licenses.
00:13:17
You could actually get to
00:13:18
do several different things.
00:13:19
You can get a license to
00:13:20
sell stocks and buy bonds.
00:13:22
You can get a license
00:13:22
to actually give advice
00:13:24
and to manage portfolios.
00:13:25
You can get a license
00:13:26
to actually charge people
00:13:27
for asset management.
00:13:29
There are a lot of things
00:13:30
and that's why the link is down below.
00:13:31
But the main thing is
00:13:33
there is a portion of this
00:13:34
where you can make a lot
00:13:36
of money from your client,
00:13:38
even though it's not in
00:13:39
your client's best interests.
00:13:41
I don't like that.
00:13:42
So my main goal would be,
00:13:44
if I were to ever
00:13:45
become a financial advisor,
00:13:46
it would be to be a fiduciary.
00:13:48
A fiduciary, everything
00:13:49
that he does or she does
00:13:52
has to be in the best
00:13:53
interest of his or her client.
00:13:57
That way, I don't wanna
00:13:58
sell you whole life insurance.
00:14:00
I don't wanna sell you assets
00:14:02
that I know don't make any sense to you,
00:14:04
but since I'm getting a commission
00:14:06
and I can make some long-term income,
00:14:08
I don't want to do that.
00:14:09
I don't want to.
00:14:11
So I would probably
00:14:13
go into fiduciary work,
00:14:14
but if you're able to
00:14:15
put that aside and say,
00:14:17
well, it's just business.
00:14:19
I'm offering products that
00:14:20
are for this person and so on.
00:14:22
Well, this job can
00:14:22
make you a lot of money,
00:14:24
like upwards to like
00:14:24
200, 300, 400, $500,000.
00:14:29
I am not joking, look it up.
00:14:30
You can make a lot of money
00:14:32
and you can do this within
00:14:33
two years or maybe three years.
00:14:35
It depends on how hard you study
00:14:37
and if you're able to pass
00:14:38
the exams for the most part.
00:14:40
But it is incredible.
00:14:42
I think if I ever had to get a job,
00:14:46
I would probably get into
00:14:47
like financial devising.
00:14:49
It would just click for me.
00:14:52
I think so.
00:14:52
Now the last one, number seven,
00:14:54
which is the most surprising one
00:14:56
is to become a flight attendant.
00:14:57
I had no idea to
00:14:58
become a flight attendant.
00:14:59
You could actually do
00:15:00
it within two months
00:15:01
to maybe six months or so.
00:15:02
And usually even the
00:15:03
train is done by the airline
00:15:05
and they pay for the whole thing for you.
00:15:07
Now, obviously, a flight attendant
00:15:09
isn't going to make you rich overnight,
00:15:10
but you're able to get
00:15:11
30,000 to 50, to 60K.
00:15:14
And once you get into like your tenure
00:15:16
and you're like a senior there,
00:15:17
well possibly you could even make like
00:15:19
upwards to $100,000.
00:15:21
That's a lot of money.
00:15:22
Now, this is like one of those jobs,
00:15:25
like the whole like trucking job,
00:15:27
which I wouldn't do right now in this
00:15:30
picture I'm in right now
00:15:31
with my wife, with my daughter.
00:15:33
I just don't wanna be
00:15:35
flying back and forth
00:15:36
and being over here
00:15:37
because I will miss a lot of
00:15:38
moments of my family's life.
00:15:40
But if I'm back to being 17 years old,
00:15:42
I just graduated high school
00:15:44
and I can get a job
00:15:45
being a flight attendant
00:15:47
and make $60,000, like 50K,
00:15:49
or even $40,000 for like four years.
00:15:52
Well, in four years, I
00:15:53
got to make 160 grand.
00:15:56
That's a lot of money.
00:15:57
And even while I'm
00:15:58
being a flight attendant,
00:15:59
I could be doing, for
00:16:00
example, like some online courses.
00:16:02
So once I'm done with that,
00:16:03
I could basically just get into a normal
00:16:06
job for the most part.
00:16:07
That's a little bit more stable
00:16:08
as far as like not having to
00:16:09
be over there and over here
00:16:11
and all this flying around stuff, okay.
00:16:13
And there's a lot of
00:16:14
cool perks obviously,
00:16:15
but it's one of those
00:16:16
jobs that you can get into.
00:16:18
The cost is high because
00:16:19
it is a lot of flying around
00:16:20
and there's like little stability
00:16:22
and the roots you
00:16:23
could actually build up.
00:16:24
But if you're young and
00:16:26
you're just getting started
00:16:27
and you don't have responsibilities
00:16:28
and you're able to do
00:16:29
this, well, it's not that bad.
00:16:31
I would prefer, I would
00:16:32
have preferred to do this,
00:16:34
then go to college
00:16:35
and get that much money
00:16:37
while I'm getting a
00:16:38
degree also and then graduate
00:16:40
and then just go into a normal job.
00:16:42
I think that those options
00:16:44
aren't usually given to us.
00:16:46
We usually are told
00:16:47
you have to go to college
00:16:48
and stick to that because
00:16:50
I think everyone's worried
00:16:51
about you not finishing,
00:16:52
but if you're committed,
00:16:54
you're going to be
00:16:54
committed, okay, for the most part.
00:16:56
Guys, those are seven jobs
00:16:58
for people that are
00:16:59
willing to start over.
00:17:01
And they take less than two years.
00:17:02
Some of these jobs make you over 100K.
00:17:05
Let me know in the comments down below
00:17:06
which one of these
00:17:07
were you most surprised by
00:17:09
and which one of these
00:17:10
would you actually consider?
00:17:12
Let me know.
00:17:13
For me, honestly, I told you ready, okay?
00:17:15
It has to be number six
00:17:16
to be a financial advisor.
00:17:18
But if I'm in a clinch,
00:17:19
I could become a trucker
00:17:20
like in a second, okay?
00:17:23
And it's not to denote
00:17:24
truckers or whatever,
00:17:25
but it's a pretty accessible job
00:17:28
where you make a lot of
00:17:28
money, but it is grueling work.
00:17:31
And I get sleepy.
00:17:32
Maybe I won't do that, okay?
00:17:33
Thanks for watching.
00:17:34
I'll see you guys next time.
