Coach, Are You Not Practising Your Profession?

One of the players of the Cash flow Game I moderated in Makati once asked: "Coach, are you not practising your profession?" I answered, "I am." "Then why are you not employed as a Civil Engineer?" Then I said, "Most Civil Engineers who practise in the E or S quadrant barely had the chance to build their own building because they almost spend their lives constructing other people's building. If they had the chance, It's only houses and most likely they are just liabilities instead of assets. 
For me, I chose to practice CE in the B and I quadrant because not only will I had the chance to build businesses which will be my assets but also eventually design and construct my own buildings, which will also be my own assets."
