The only fake post is yours. I could not agree more with Pam. I've been with Primerica now since 1988 and things are better now than they ever have been. I'm a Regional Leader, which is technically a part time position, and have been able to work at whatever pace I have chosen to work at any particular time. And I'm certain my income is better than 90% of most folks.
Commissioned sales is commissioned sales. Period. Though products and services are priced differently, they will not sell themselves. If they would, they wouldn't need anyone to sell them.
Our services are needed and wanted now more than ever before. At my office, our meetings are packed. And unlike the traditional commissioned sales position, with Primerica you can build an organization that will provide income even when you are not out there working yourself. What's wrong with that? If it's such a bad idea, why then are there so many copy-cat organizations sprining up? No one tries to copy a 'bad' business plan.
You may not see any value in Primerica, but at least 6 million (and growing) other people see tremendous value.
Keep in mind, Primerica is here, and ain't leaving any time soon...unlike your favorite anti-Primerica boards that are falling like flies, lol.
I know it bothers you that some people are doing well in Primerica. Why it bothers you? Well, that I don't truly know or care...perhaps you should seek professional help on that. I can tell you this much though...it brings me great joy rpoving folks like you wrong.

: : I have been with primerica for a year and I believe that your opinion is actually coming from a person with no motivation to actually work. primerica is no different than any other commission sale job. (Ive worked in them all my life) It is backed by a large wonderful company with a proven track record. The only people in our office are the ones who don't work. My family and friends were more than happy to see what I was doing and we moved them all over to a debt elimination program that was extremely better than what they had. I have never had to make a cold call because the people I help are more than happy to give me warm referrals. It is no different than having a restaurant and asking your friends and family to come in and try it and recommend it to their friends. The person that trained me makes over 300,000 a year, does not charge me for anything. I have personally went head to head to many people in finances and I know more now than they will ever learn. everyone was totally up front with me about earnings, recruiting and working hard.
: : I interviewed with 4 other financial firms before I joined Primerica and they were useless! They all expected me to cold call, recruit with no override, and promotions were a joke.
: : As I said at the beginning, only those afraid to work would write this crap.
