Pros

Entrepreneurial environment with access to resources, tips, and tools for success. Industry recognized training and license preparation. 100% control over all aspects of business development. Superior product partner relationships.

Cons

Challenging business model for established adult/family lifestyle, i.e., more conducive for individuals with minor living expenses and little (or shared) responsibilities.

Pros

Good training program for getting your seven and sixty-six. They do a really good job at hiring the nicest people. They do a good job training you how to prospect. You don't have to know anything about investing or the economy to get hired.

Cons

You work alone. You work 70+hours a week. You door knock. Terrible at sales training. Nepotism.
