agent needs ethics lesson

We listened to her talk about the company, its services and how we could join the company and make some extra money.
It all seemed to good to be true.
Perhaps one could make some money with this company if one tried. This agent however was only interested in recruiting my husband to join her little club of sorid adultery, not join Primerica to make money.
After catching them in the act at the local motel I promptly divorced my husband and have been after this hussy ever since.
So while Primerica may or may not be a fantastic company, This agent who's card I still have is the worst kind a female trash and should be fired from her job before she goes out and ruins another family in her pursuit of married men.
I think the whole world should know what sort of slut she is , so read on.. here is her name, all you nice married ladies beware she is a predator.

My husband is a VERY hard worker. You cannot say "well, anyone who doesn't succeed in primerica it's because they don't work at it"...because my husband works this business to no end. He also works a full time job, but every other moment is dedicated to Primerica. He goes to opportunity meetings, goes on interviews, kitchen tables, spends time calling our warm market (who are all avoiding him now), every freaking second is dedicated to this business and it's ruining our family and he hasn't made one freaking CENT. He's dumfounded because people that seeming are not as hard workers as him are making tons of money. SUPPOSEDLY. I don't see anyone do anything, but that's just me.
Honestly, I don't think Primerica is a bad company. It's not a scam. They do tell you up front that you have to work at it. And you do...but it's VERY HARD. In this office they tell you that you should be going on 15-30 appointments to get ONE recruit. And then you just HOPE that that one recruit actually DOES something. In 6 months my husband has recruited two people. Both have paid the money but not been heard from since (thus making him no money in commissions). The only person he's got to buy a product is his mom. It's just a VERY DIFFICULT business to be in because no one wants to be approached about this stuff. IF people want loans and life insurance they will call you. They don't want people calling THEM trying to help. JMHO.
It's discouraging to my husband because he's never worked so hard at anything and not succeeded. And so he just works harder at it, and gets mad at everyone around him. Mad at me for not going to the Primerica meetings with him, mad at our family for not letting him come over and show them the business, mad at people who don't show up at his meetings, or don't answer their door for kitchen table meetings after he just drove 45 mins to their home after working a full freaking day at his real job.
It's not a bad company but it can suck the life out of you if you're not careful
Here's what I know: I am a MUCH, MUCH, MUCH happier and more balanced person now that Primerica is not a part of my life (or should I say doesn't consume my life). I once again have real relationships with my family and friends, because not every conversation I have has a hidden agenda. I get to listen to music I love in the car, rather than tapes and cds for self-improvement--the same thing applies for books. I am pursuing the things that I am passionate about and enjoy RIGHT NOW, rather than waiting until I make it, so I can "Take the Rest of my Life Off." I am cultivating relationships with people I love right now, because the truth is in 5-15 years they might not be alive (or they may have grown up and don't want to hang out with me anymore).
I am rebuilding my financial life as well. My wife and I are in the process of finishing up filing for bankruptcy because of the ridiculous sacrifices we made. We made them because we were taught that "business owners make sacrifices." "If you want to win big, you have to sacrifice big." Were we coachable? To a fault. $30,000 in credit card debt coachable. $30,000 in credit card debt doesn't happen overnight, but when you are full time in a business where you average about $1600 a month in actual cash flow, and put out about $800 a month in business expenses, how do you put food on your table with anything but plastic, not to mention go to a RETREAT or a SEMINAR half-way across the country? You might ask, what kind of idiot would keep this up for 3 years? He must be missing part of his brain. Probably the part that is meant to sense danger or feel pain. I ask you, what kind of "leader" let's their down line continue on like that for three years?
Do people make it in this business?? Sure. I've met quite a few of them. A few thousand people making over $100,000 a year might sound pretty awesome, but really think about what that is. Over 30 years, a few thousand people wear a ring that says they GROSS $100,000 a year in Primerica. That's before you take away office expenses. That's before you pay your secretary. That's before you go on a trip. That's working 50,60,70,80 hours a week. Don't forget pretty slim odds of even doing that. The company recruits in the neighborhood of 25,000 people every single month.
Was there anything good that happened to me in the process? Yeah! You can learn from every single thing that happens to you good or bad. I read some really helpful books. I learned some great things about money. I met some great people, who I still definitely consider friends. I learned to value TIME. I learned to ask questions before I jump into things. Leadership. Public speaking. I learned to dream. I have a brother who won STATE partly because of some of the things I taught him while I was in Primerica about setting goals.
If you have a really shitty job, and you hate your current life, I would definitely encourage you to get active and change the things you don't like. Will Primerica definitely be your place to do that? Probably not. It might be the kick in the pants you need to get off the coach and go for something, but it is not the only way to improve yourself (although you will be taught it is the only way to win in life if you stick around for too long).
Good luck in discerning what to do. Will I hate you if you take the bait hook, line and sinker? No way. I drank the Primerica Cool-aide for 3 years straight, and lived to tell the tale.
these are the three MOST important things you must have in life..
1.GREAT doctor
2.Great lawyer
3.GREAT financial advisor
and who doesnt need a financial advisor??? thats right everyone..

If anyone wants to make $500-$1000 per month join this company and give it 20 hours per week. Don't stop working your day job. Just use this company for some extra cash. Read the other post, one guy is over $ 30,000.00 in credit card debt. How could that happen. You see since it's yours to work as you see fit, you can get in over your head in debt. No one is going to stop you from working 100 hours a week or going 30k in debt. Thats my I only pay my $25 a month and give 20hours per week. This company has been around for a long time. I a had freind in the business about 20 years ago. I had been married just a short time when he cqme over to show me the business. I listened to him, but thought twice and said thanks but no thanks. I had invested 20 years ago, how much money would I have now? I hate to think about it. As for my friend.... Yeah, he retired from this company. I still get up every morning and go to work. He sleeps until 9:00am or until he wakes up. By the way he is now 45 years old and does not have to work another day. Oh, pardon me for not adressing the post. Your husbands a dog the agent is a hoe. Good luck and always do the right thing!
