[QUOTE="Ulrick, post: 950024, member: 775"] Yeah, I decided to check up on this thread. I THANK EVERYBODY FOR THEIR INPUT. I'm still going with Primerica. And, honestly, I don't want to quit D&D. I don't want to get isolated from my friends. I shouldn't drop what I love. I'm an entreprenuer. One of the main reasons I joined is to increase my people and sales skills--two skills that are vital if I want to run a business someday. If I start finding out things that are shady, I'll quit. Plain and simple. I understand that in order to make good money you got to recruit. Build that pipeline. I understand that the people I work with aren't necessarily my friends--because if I quit I'll probably never see them again. That doesn't bother me. Business is business. And I understand that I won't get rich quick. Sure, there are a few people in the company that just exploded into weath--but that ain't the norm. I might. But I don't bet on it. But it is a real postive environment that I'm in. And isn't all "ra ra you're gonna be rich" as it is with Scamway/Quixtar. There's workshops and classes where you learn about life insurance, loans, and other financial info that I'll probably need anyway as an entrepreneuer. Those classes are free. Yes, there are motivational CDs you can listen to. But they're either a $1 each or free. Yes, Primerica is out to make money. So am I. That's business. Profit isn't a sin as long as its make ethically. I'm just gonna need to use discipline to balance Primerica with my life. That's all there's to it. If it doesn't work out. Oh well, that's another experience under my belt that I can learn from. I look forward to this because I'm testing myself. What we do is simple. But it ain't easy. I want to see how much I got. I want to test my limits--live outside my comfort zone. Keep pushing myself. Sitting around and playing D&D is great, but life is such an adventure in itself. I don't want to miss out on it just because I was afraid to take risks. Yeah, this is a risk. But if you risk nothing, you gain nothing. Well, that's my speech. It looks like I'll be around. :D [/QUOTE]
