Lots of people in this country make a good living in the insurance industry. I’m sure you have insurance on your home, car, disability, health and life and probably other things.

I've looked into the insurance industry and it is just like any other 100% commission job. It really does take about 4-5 years to “make it” in the business.

I have been told that had I started selling insurance when I was 30, instead of going into IT and AV sales, that I would be wealthy and retired by now. Insurance gets residuals, if one does not opt to cash out early.

It all depends on the company behind you, and whatever stupid decisions that HQ makes to help their agents.

It seems to be the ultimate 80/20 job. The top 20% make it, the bottom 20% get shotgunned or starve and the rest in the middle have to decide which direction they will go.

A very small percentage of agents make money. Most are promised the moon and taken advantage of.

My first wife was the Midwestern recruiter for a very well-known insurance company, a job that I found for her as I worked at the state job service office. Throughout the years I saw the new agents she hired. Those that followed directions and worked as hard as directed made a very good living and those that didn’t soon left. FReepmail me if you want to know the name of the company.
