When I passed my Real Estate exam in 2000 - the market was flooded with Licensed Realtors. Everyone wanted to sell Real Estate because the market was hot. You could put a house on the market and in about 2 weeks you had a full price offer on it. The number of Licensed Realtors has dropped and continues to drop monthly as the market makes a different turn and different shifts. Where are those Realtors now ?

Then I started thinking about everything that has happened since 2000 - 9-11 attacks in New York, Katrina and recently the collapse of the Real Estate market. So my question is WHERE ARE THEY NOW ? Where are the people who were in the news ?

Steven Segal - 7th Degree Black Belt, movie star is now working in Jefferson Parish ( Louisiana ) for the Sherriff department with his own show on A&E.

Bart Ward - Robin from the TV Show - Batman and Robin - Runs a charity with his wife called Gentle Giants Rescue and Adoptions, Inc. that rescues and cares for abandoned Great Dane dogs.

Charlene Tilton - played Lucy Ewing - TV Show ' Dallas ' - Tilton continues to appear on television, most recently on the WE Channel's show, You're Wearing That?, which aired on August 26.

So as you consider whether you should stick it out in Real Estate or move on to a new career - keep in mind that someday someone might be posting a blog post about you wondering " Where are they now ? "

Who knows you might just have your own Radio Show like me.
