Why don't more young adults forego college and dive head first into it? 2 weeks of state licensing study, cost of the license (<$150.00 in most states) and you're on your way.

I think I speak for everybody when I say... We're not buying insurance from you.

We're too busy cleaning our mansions and yachts from all the money we made off our bit coin.

I would feel more comfortable buying insurance from a guy with a 4 year bachelors degree.

Not my primary career I just sell specific products on the side. Hardly the point of the thread, though. Being exposed to the industry like I have, it's pretty crazy money. Now, it's not for everyone... setting your own schedule and being your own boss is hard for some.

Because you have to be able to relate to people to sell them. Not saying you learn that directly in college, but in that age range you usually mature and deal with real life issues which better prepare you when you're trying to sell to people with exponentially higher net worth than yourself.

Not everyone is comfoirtable selling unless gambles against oneself or ripping people off.

I don't want to be in any business where I have to annoy my friends and family to try and make a living. Pass.

Because it's a shitty job and most can't even begin to understand how insurance works much less sell it upon graduating high school.

Let me ask you this, would you buy insurance from some shite head that a month ago was worried about who he was asking to prom? Now he's answering your question about how to best protect your assets. No thanks.

Oh my

You honestly believe that only those with a high net worth purchase various types of insurance? Not talking about home or auto exclusively, mind you
