> I think you highly under-estimate the sales skills and other life competencies required to be in a high pressure sales job like being a real estate agent.

Agreed - I laugh when people call me a “salesman”. Matchmaker and project manager are more in line, with a whole lot of very specialized knowledge of finance, marketing, negotiation, soils, fencing, construction, environmental law…

Yep - it's tricky, but not full on sales. Just a definitions thing - I'm not in sales either.
