As the economy gets worse, there is less and less of a need for financial planners, since people have less money for “tomorrow.”

You may be better off seeking a job in banking, since banks are major real estate lenders and always will be.

Good Luck!

I have a friend that moved to brokering heavy equipment sales and leasing. He seems to be living very comfortably on the income. If you already have contacts as an underwriter and loan coordinator, you’re already half-way there. You need only start developing a customer base.
