re: Becoming a finacial advisor

It depends. I am with Merrill Lynch as a financial advisor for Merrill Edge, and the job is definitely performance based, but is much more relaxed than a build-your-book branch gig.
When you have to go out in your community and solicit new business, that's when FA work gets tough. People like to invest with folks that they know and respect, and that comfort level is tough to establish.
It just depends with the position and role you play for your company.

This is who I am looking to talk to? Part of the Merrill 38 month training program. I am looking for something where I can interact with people and keep learning as I grow. Is it more of a strictly commission based position?
