Here's the one that got Pru (and others) in deep doodoo circa 1993:
"Were you aware you could get additional insurance at NO out of pocket cost?"
As long as they had at least a couple of month's worth of accumes to pay the premium (or PUAs to surrender) - it was off to the races!
Yup! Late 80s early 90s. UL was the new end all beat all. It was the IUL.
Six months of divs to pay premiums on the old policy and the promise land. How about this one. Take the values out of the old policy, buy a bond fund. (mid 80s), after the first year the fund pays the premium. Two sales. That was the negative part.
I was there about a year and a half. They said do this, I did it faster than the next guy. They said that funds is the money maker, I parroted it. Made convention my first year.
Then I started getting educated outside the office. Oh Sh!t! I bailed.
The good old days?
