As someone who was recently laid off and is taking it as an opportunity to start a new career to have alongside my Avon career, I find this thread helpful and interesting. Years ago I came close to being licensed, but I had to do a lot of cold calling and the leads and sales weren't happening--and I didn't have the drive or know-how back then as I do now--so I decided it wasn't for me at the time. Perhaps the second time may be the charm. I'm also considering Real Estate, which I really have a strong interest in.
For those of you who are in the insurance biz, what led you to decide on a career in insurance? Do you enjoy it? Is it your primary career, or one of a few?
