You probably heard that from someone who was unsuccessful with tele-sales. Same thing as a face 2 face agent saying it's impossible to make any $$$ working "$225 gov't death benefit" DM cards.....Some can and some can't.
We REALLY do need a sarcasm emoticon. My statement was tongue in cheek as it has been discussed here over and over with some folks saying you can't make any money with FE tele-sales.
Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't know one way or the other as I'm not in the FE market.
