Sarcastic review of recruiting meeting and licensing fee

Business & Finance

Those silly Primericans! They told me they would be positive, up lifting, and motivating, to pursue my goals and dreams. In which I responded I have no goals and dreams. And who are they to tell me I can accomplish what I want to do in life.

Those silly Primericans! They said I could make unlimited income. In which I responded,? Money can't buy everything!? For example money can't buy poverty or hunger. Money isn't that important, its not like air you can breath without it.

Those silly Primericans! They invited me to a happy group environment where I wasn't asked personal questions. That really sucked, I was upset all day long and didn't feel like changing. Who do they think they are offering me coffee and cookies with a smile? What is this Starbucks?

Those silly Primericans! They said I could build a business for a $199 State Licensing Fee. My real estate license cost me $2000 and even though my business failed they still called me an? Agent? It made me feel better about the money. That debt over my head would sure motivate me. And that's what I need some good old fashion debt motivation. Thank? God? I had none of that.

And that's another thing one of the other guests yelled "amen", I guess he was excited but I thought immediately "cult"? No faith for me! If light encompassed everything how could I hide in the darkness?

And that brings up the last issue. I was asked to talk to my friends and family about something that might improve their lives and their future. I say if the people I know want to grow they should buy fertilizer, not financial concepts. And if they were better off than me, whom would I talk about, and whose dreams could I crush?

So if you are looking at Primerica as an opportunity think of this. If you want to have your goals and dreams given back to you, if you want to have the constant problem of having money, if you wish to be around positive and happy people, own a business with very little overhead and high yield, have faith, and improve the life of the people around you. Go ahead if that's your thing, join that "cult". I didn't want any of that and I hope you don't either. Yuck!

PS Always look on sites like this. Where people who have never made it, or who have never tried it, come together and complain about the appointments they never went on, and the money they never made.

CAUTION: (And I mean caution never ever read qualified literature on the topic of finance that states Buy Term and Invest the Difference, in great American companies)
Literature Such as:
Forbes, Success Magazine, Wall Street Journal, AM's Best (who has been rating insurance companies for longer than we have been alive and rates Primerica A), along with Standard and Poor's, Moody's, and so on and so on and so etc. Etc?
