Career in Banking vs Real Estate (Canada or America)

I've been interested in sales and trades as a salesman but i've also had interest in real estate sales. they are both set in fast paced environments and have potential to be lucrative.

Is going into sales and trades (salesperson) straight out of uni for 4 years and switching to real estate a bad idea?

If you were to pick a career, would you choose banking or real estate and why?
