yeah, I've thought about slanging some Gap Insurance for a bit since my restaurant shut down
Out of tests at the moment, anyway.Prefer to give my money to the private sector anyway. Thanks, DO Bob.
Hmmm thats a hormone therapy place. That Dr. John guy owns it, the actual doctor who drives a Maserati.
So maybe I'll stick with UK.
Absolutely, man. Dicking around with mortgages was fun for some great cash as a young lad when things were booming, and then into banking ([sick]) once that crashed & I craved stability -- but I was never truly "building" anything.
11.5 years in with my current gig & book and things are great at this point -- but, if I was approaching 20 instead...shew.
-Those Financial Advisor/Life gigs are attractive to young kids b/c it's nearly a guaranteed job, sounds fancy, and you look at the old guys crushing it and imagine yourself there. The same is true for Multi-Lines Insurance, but not to nearly the same degree as the Financial/Life focused. I'm the only person left here of the 17 that I went through Orientation with. What was the one we (and everyone) flirted with out of UK - First Advisors or some ****?
...the reality is that not many people are going to hand over their investments/future to a fresh out of college kid to manage, or even an older person brand new to the business. I mean, I sure as hell wouldn't. Really tough gig to break into, props to those who did & were successful. I'd love to see the actual success/turnover rate - has to be just abysmal.
-Vijay is a POS, but that's nothing new. Imagine if other tour pros followed suit? (they won't)
Those guys on Korn Ferry are grinding week-to-week for a spot & chance to earn - it's complete ******** for any player of Vijay's stature/wealth to take one of those spots.
I wonder where all the Industry Legends that groomed a young BBdK ended up?
I’d recommend reading, “So Good They Can’t Ignore You,” “Linchpin,” and “Range” to get in a good mindset for a career change.Thanks for the feedback. I googled what it’s like to be a financial advisor and learned pretty quickly that isn’t the life for me. Sales, prospecting, cold calling. No thanks. High stress, high turnover, and long hours? Very hard pass.
I worked in a high stress, high turnover, and long hours industry for nearly 13 years and the only way I’d go back to that if it is the difference between me being homeless or not. Sure, the potential earnings are great, but what good is it if the only thing I have energy for when I’m not working is nothing?
I exclusively buy Lipp/Spit/H&A policies.
<--- Would prefer to watch Vijay play in a Korn Nuts Invitational than some Joe Flunky hanging-round the mini-tour 29-year old loser.
You’d be surprised how many careers start out like that. I had to be in my car driving around about 8 hours a day and eating lunch in my car and then dinners every night for about 2 years before I could start living a somewhat normal life.
Restaurants opening the 22nd. Hoo boy. Me and my wife are dying to get out. Feel like the whole city is going to be filled with people acting like uncaged wild animals. Basically like when one of your boys that has kids and hasn’t been out in 6 months acts the first night of boys weekend.
F this weather. Hard.
I bet you’ll still blow it in terms of getting laid that first night out though.
Youth baseball season opening Saturday, July 4th *lights cigarette* time for the fireworks baby
I was with American Express Financial Advisors early 00. Lasted 6 months. 1st thig they wanted was 500 contacts. Sheeeeit. How about 40?
Louisville.In Lex?
Hot Take: Those uniforms are awful.
