Well, it's Saturday night, and time to relax a little. Twenty questions, +/-, on agent tech needs dissected here, in the spirit of community:
Do I need an abacus? Probably not. Highly unlikely. No.
A slide rule? Ditto.
A calculator? Might be handy, unless you are that feller from Good Will Hunting. Now, don't go buy a chalkboard...
Do I need a cellphone? Yes. And buy some minutes, more than 15 or 20 a month, dag nab it...
A cellphone with a camera? NO. We professionals take photos with a camera, not a telephone.
Do I need a Smartphone? I don't know. Mine makes me feel inferior.
Do I need an IPhone, or a hacked IPhone? Probably not. But it looks cool, and is currently brag-worthy.
Do I need one of those li'l old way cool Bluetooth thingies in my ear? Why is it "...Tooth" if it goes in your ear?
Do I need a land line? Maybe not. If you only work from your car, definitely not.
Do I need an XBox? No.
Do I need a Wii? Oui. I mean, Non! Go door-knocking and get out of the house!
Do I need a 65" plasma TV, and a real kick-butt blu-ray home thee-ater? Work that need out with your wife, pal. Your broker will tell you no. However, if you hold great Monday Night Football Parties every week, it might be the cornerstone of your budding career.
Do I need a digital camera? Probably.
What kind of film do I need for that camera? Unh...
Do I need a fax machine? No. Most of the time, no. If your Uncle offers you his and it uses thermal paper, you REALLY don't need one.
Do I have to have access to a computer? Yes. You can blame a LOT of shortcomings on it.
Do I have to own a computer? Probably. It's tres gauche to blame YOUR shortcomings on a friend's computer. And the Public library IT staff doesn't want to hear it.
Do I have to own a laptop or tablet computer? It's helpful. But you can plan around it.
Do I need internet access? Yes. That's where the good stuff is.
Do I need software? Shucks, no. Let us know how you make out with that...
Do I need a scanner? It can be helpful. Buy it before you put a wing on the back of your '98 Neon.
Do I need GPS? No, but it is very popular. Do you know where you are now?
Do I need a car? Well, if you are getting by without one, tell us about it, please.
Do I need a fast tuned ricer car? Sure. And put a 600 pound subwoofer in the whole back seat and take the extended SuperSize family out looking at houses. "Gone in Sixty Seconds Realty." I can see it, "You got a minute to buy lady, and then I'm taking y'all for another ride... That's not a threat. It's a promise..."
Do Chicks dig REALTORS? Of course they do. Go for it.
