hello all,
my name is Todd, and I have decided that I am going to change careers into the L&H insurance field. I am studying now and plan to take the PA state test in June. I guess my biggest issue is whether to go "captive" or independent. I have heard arguments for both sides of the coin, and I really guess it comes down to what I feel more comfortable with. However I do have a wife that is used to not working, and two small children who need to be provided for. Not that I am in any way making a killing now, a little over 50k last year, but it is what we are used to. I am used to working a 40 plus hour week and have been in sales for about 10 years. Is it realistic that I can amintain that type of income or more during the first year, while getting my feet wet? Any help will be greatly appreciated, tahnk you.
