story #2

-When someone gets into real estate sales they automatically have potential to make lots of money. My best friend is only 23 and has already sold several homes for a housing development in Rocklin. Unfortunately, in order to be paid commission on sales he is required to have his realtor's license.
-He has not yet acquired this license and the result is missing out on lots and lots of money. It takes time and effort to earn a realtor's license and as a full-time student he strugglesto find free time. He also works over 30 hours a week for the housing development.
-As his friends, like me, work customer service at jobs that require little effort he works like a professional. Since he is in school studying business and communications he decided that he wants to be in sports broadcasting rather than real estate. He is also considering being a sports agent.
-He is on the verge of graduating and has contacted people that are offering him oppoortunities to find a way into the sports market. Real estate and sport broadcasting/athlete representation both involve lots of sweet talking, like in Jerry Maguire. Lucky for my friend he has the gift of gab and can bull shi* his way through anything.
-All I have for this idea is framework, I need more depth support only I'm not sure what I should look for to make the story interesting. It is based on a close friend's career change which leaps from an occupation based on money and encouragement to an occuptation based on passion and charisma. Any help would be much appreciated.
