I think this is the whole 'arrow vs. Indian' predicament.

I think it has, and I started it to get out of FE and into a new forum.
You guys can sit here and rag on me all you want, it's only giving me reason to keep going

So you've given up on FE again?
I think everyone hopes you succeed...I know I do.

Once he said that he wanted to be a CFP, I knew he wasn't going to go in the direction of FE sales.
Nothing wrong with FE sales... but if someone wants to be a CFP, they're mindset is going in a different direction.

I know...just trying to make a point on the flip flopping. He was still talking about working FE last night, if Ben would forgive him for slapping him in the face.

I wouldnt say I've given up on FE, just that I was getting some heat to stop posting there since my thread derailed.
DHK has been absolutely paramount in guiding me and taking the time to figure out where I stand and what I want to do throughout all my ramblings.
From where everyone on this forum stands my relative timeline is travelling a lot faster from getting contacted by Waddell & Reed, to reaching out to me CFP colleague I interned at NMFN with, and then applying to Edward Jones. It was also during that tumultuous time I left AIL, and now apart from having only made a pittance of sales there, I am trying to find part time gigs to bring in some income while the Edward Jones interviews play out.
If it doesnt work out, then I will be right back to the beginning of this thread. Not interested in AIL, but having a Life and Health Insurance producers license. Then, maybe, I'll be right back to the FE forums.
If it comes to that, then I'm going to pawn half my stuff to get E&O, Leads, and contracts

It is not too hard to get a job with EJ, you really have to mess it up. Having said that, if you know they want 25 why not give them more than that?
On a different note I was applying to be a broker in Atlanta with a notable firm. They gave a Ben Affleck Boiler Room speech and backed it up with pay stubs and all other kinds of stuff.
Then the lead broker went around the room asking about education. Person after person proudly stated they had Bachelor degrees and where they came from. It got to me, I was eager and ready. I'm KGH with an MBA blah blah blah. The manger slammed his hand on the table and the room went quite. He tells me "I don't like to hire people with MBA's. I want ditch diggers, I have never seen an MBA who wanted to dig ditches seven days a week. Why should I waste my time on you."
There is more to that story but the point is EJ wants the same thing, people to roll up their sleeves and dig some ditches.

^^ That sounds like an epic story! Seriously though, education doesn't mean much in this business...

DHK when did you start your new mentor program?? You deserve an over ride on this kid.
