2 min

Tim compares the current glamorization of real estate agents on reality TV to the earlier glamorization of chefs and bartenders, and describes the harsh reality behind those professions.

In this bit5 moments
  • Real estate is a low-rent profession being glamorized on Netflix and social media through shows like Million Dollar Listing.
  • Only a small fraction of real estate agents actually sell luxury properties and make money; for many it's a second or third job.
  • Real estate agents are like bottle service girls—they just open doors and recite listings.
  • The restaurant industry went through the same glamorization cycle years ago with reality shows centered on chefs.
  • Being a chef means you're often a junkie who doesn't see your family, hates them, and dies pretty young toiling in obscurity.
