Primerica Financial Services...
 

Anybody know anything about them? Good or bad?

Tried to recruit me when i was a vacuum cleaner salesman, kinda mlm'ish, bunch of insurance salespeople

dunno

I attended one of their seminars today... they were very convincing but at the same time seemed very cultish. They spent a lot of time talking about and glorifying being your own boss etc. but spent little to no time talking about how to run the business. Talked about all the free company trips, average salaries, quality of life etc.

They tried to get me too back when i was selling cutco knives... it's similar to the mlm thing as was mentioned already.
They made it sound all official too - made me get like 5 references... fuckers.

They wanted like 300 bucks upfront too.. when I asked them to pay the thing for me and I'll pay back when I start making the great money that they promised during the seminar, they obviously refused.

That about sums up my experience with them

they basically are a multi-level selling arm of Citicorp - you sell insurance, mortages, annuties, etc.

a friend of mine was interested and signed up with them. I went to one of their meetings per her request to check it all out. Kinda creepy with the whole MLM marketing angle but legit in terms of the products they sell. I don't like any program where they stress the commissions you get from the downline people instead of the commissions you get yourself from selling.

if you want to go into selling financial products there are plenty of other options out there - take a look around.

Me too, didn't you feel like you were at a timeshare meeting?

BIGGEST FUCKIN SCAM EVER

They basically teach you to market financial products to poor fucks who don't need it. I don't want a job thats gonna be lieing 24/7. They also want money for upfront.

If you wanna be a financial planner, take some legit classes and get certified to be a CFP.

its obvious I need to start up one of these seminar deals, ya know the ones were you charge 200-300 per head to join, give a shitload of useless information, make it clear its up to you to make your wealth with drive and determination. Knowing 99.9999% of people lose interest in it next week. All the while I am raking in 200 per head. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

My sister started to get involved in that shit in between jobs. They pretend like you're gonna be a "financial advisor" but it's amway type insurance bullshit. I'd steer clear.

Need a partner?

Fuck travel the states, holding bullshit seminars in Holiday Inn's. Sounds like a plan.

We could also branch out into options strategy seminars , no-money down real estate seminars, and make money in online porn seminars...

Meet me at the Golden Apple.

4 years ago my old boss took me to one of these meetings. He wanted to quit his job and open his own office with Primerica. If you're on top, i guess you can make decent money having your minions selling insurance, stocks, funds, etc... His college friend was pretty high up in the company with a few offices in Miami, so he was doing pretty good. He made mad monthly commissions off of my Roth IRA and Mutual Funds. They put on a pretty good show. Everybody was happy, talking about how much money they were making, and how good it feels to help people get life insurance at lower costs... But basically its all a show, because they force current members to bring one or two nonmebers so they can convince them to join too. And they show pictures of one of the leaders houses and cars and talk about how great it is to go on vacations, and all this other bullshit...

hehe, yep, they just had speaker after speaker of current members making bling... from the "small earners" (100k+/year) to the big timers (400k+/month). There were even a lot of emotions involved with some of the speakers break out CRYING because of how happy they were (yes even guys lol). The whole thing just seemed like a giant informercial.

What really pissed me off was the fact that the coffee wasn't even free! At a seminar where they're convincing you that you can be a millionaire by joining and with at least 30 millionaires there they can't afford to provide free coffee! LOL

That was the first red flag for me, as that was the only seminar I've ever attended in my life without free coffee! lol

... this is a company that's appearantly worth a trillion dollars.
