I straddle the line. My left foot is in Indiana and my right foot is in Kentucky.
I actually live in Indiana and have an office in Henderson, KY and another one in Evansville, IN. They are only 10-minutes from each other but it's like two different worlds.
It's a pain in the wa-zoo to have to pay all those extra Kentucky appointment fees but it goes with the territory.

I am in the Lexington area -- to be precise, Versailles.
I am contemplating licensure in Indiana as well, as I grew up in Southern Indiana, am well-known there are a former newspaper columnist, and have a slew of family and friends there. Producing in two states (obviously) does not bother me.
I was considering a senior products-only firm, but have ruled that out. I am currently considering a brokerage that represents multiple carriers (A-, A, A+ only) of household names.
Health insurance for a growing number of people is not being provided by their employer, so it appears that the market for individual/franchise/small group might be poised for growth. This depends upon what happens on Capitol Hill, I realize. (Don't we wish we had a crystal ball?)
I recognize opportunities with LTC and various life products, but with the economy in its current state, it's hard for me to imagine a lot of people are lining up right now to make that commitment to premiums.
I'm not confident I can size up the opportunity to the same degree I grasped it, say, a year ago.
