Video of the Week – Are You a Slasher?

Posted on 17. Jun, 2008 by Jay OHare in Career, Real Estate, Video, Video of the Week

Most real estate professionals I meet are slashers. That is they don’t do just one thing. They’re a real estate broker/investor or real estate broker/retail shop owner etc. Get it – the “/” slash?

Slashers are people who have multiple parallel careers whereas a moonlighter has a side gig they work on after hours. One of the authors gives examples of lawyers turned writers & coaches (including herself), a teacher with a modeling career, a computer programmer who also directs a theater, a lawyer who’s also a Baptist minister, Sanjay Gupta, the CNN health correspondent who also does surgery a few times a month, and the list goes on and on.

This is a rather long video(56min) but if you’re trying to play the slasher game it’s worth a look.
