Gooner you're an exception and not what the standard is. Let's see what your persistency is at the 13 month mark as if I'm not mistaken you said you write a lot of direct express. As for Newby he's making 135-150% on his own business .im not saying an IMO shouldn't make money but a 150k-200k ap producer needs to be at a rate were the IMO makes about a 10% override max.You paid your dues already as your IMO has made big money off you. Should they suck on you big forever? Making 15% above street contract for a 200k producer is another 30k a yr.
Fair enough on the 13 month persistancy..we'll see, but it accounts for less than 30% of my biz...probably under 20%.
I happen to know what my IMO makes at most, why...because I'm crafty like that. Im happy to give them 10-20% for what they've given me.
Hell, they haven't said it, but I'm convinced FEX is picking up SNL because I begged them to do so anf I write a ton of it...I'd rather them make the override than someone else who won't pick up a phone..not Tommy..he answers on the 2nd ring!
And who cares what someone else is making...you sound jaded. If you could make 150% on your own biz...why wouldn't you. You got to earn it! You sound like a typical 20 year old, in the way that the world owes you something. The world owes you nothing...you want it...go get it...don't be jealous of those that have put in the blood, sweat and cockroaches...to actually have an IMO and make some I override.
