You are correct. I'm throwing in the towel. I say "no mas." I now must admit that Al is the biggest a-hole on this forum and will allow him the final word.

I had someone yesterday ask me to send them info on a FE policy. NOt really sure what they are looking for(and they speak english). I gave them the premium and the face amount what more could you want. I too will not waste any time there.
I just met Rick - he's scarier in real life then on this board. I wouldn't mess with him.
John, please set a good example! It is than (a conjuction used to introduce a second element after words indicating differences;not then (an adverb defined as "at that time").
You've been mentioning this great prospect you sent me at least a dozen times and I haven't said a word about her. But I feel compelled (since you keep making a big deal of it) to at least mention what happened.... The main problem with this lead is that English was not her first language so our communication was difficult.
Anyone can spin history but this client is a native born citizen who has no language issue. She is a book publisher since retirement but she retired after 20+ years with the Arizona Highway Patrol. I don't know where Rick says there had a language issue. Yes she has a Hispanic name, but that is from marriage. She worked her way up the officer ladder which was difficult for a woman at the time, and would be impossible for someone with a language "issue."
The majority of the agents on this forum realize that only one of us actually knows something about insurance and has made a career of helping people - and it's not him.

No one in their right mind would believe that. You claim to know a lot about insurance, but you don't. And from what I've seen here, what you DO know is WRONG.
Empty barrels make the most noise and no one posts more claims about how much they know than you do.
What you DO know best is how to insult people, how to beat-up on them, how to intimidate them, and how to alienate them. This client is a prime example. She told me the whole thing in chapter and verse. I was really embarrassed that I had referred her to you. I would never make that mistake again and I would hope no one else would either.
Rick, you're not a good agent because you really don't like people.... you like power. And you don't like me because I'm one of the few on this board who is not afraid of you, whom you can't intimidate, and whom you don't get away with the kind of crap you do with everyone else.
The bad-tempered, intimidating, anti-social, over-aggressive person we see on this board is the Rick that clients see as well. There is no way you will ever convince anyone here that you are successful in this business. We see you as you are. Whatever good qualities you have are hidden on this forum and from my experience with you I'd say they are hidden very, very well.

Hey Jackass Al,
Did you tell your spanish speaking client to go back to where she came from because she didnt learn the language?
And my email came "free" with my membership...
You trully are a Jackass....
Sincerely,
A Naturalized Citizen, who appreciates what this country has to offer, and despises those who take it for granted.
You wouldn’t last 30 seconds on the streets where I grew up.
I have no doubt you despise everyone who disagrees with you. You fit in perfectly with Rick, Senior, and a bunch of others on this board.
I'm sure no Jew or Christian would.
Jackass Al
How do you figure?
I am Greek Orthodox...
Graduated with my Bachlors in Youth Ministry From Mount Vernon Nazarene College (Now University) in Mount Vernon, OH, and was ready to go to Nazarene Theological Seminary (Kansas City) Until I started in Insurance...
YOu really are an Idiot, and though you may be really anal (dont get excited again) about grammar, you have no sense of culture, religion, or language...
There are Jewish Ramiz's, There are Muslim Ramiz's, And There are Christian Ramiz's (I Feel Like Rev. Wright, and My Middle Name is Hussein)...
I was born and Raised in the Streets of Palestine My Friend, Ever heard of the Gaza Strip?? Do you know what its like to see body parts lay on the streets covered in blood right after a suicide attack??
I dont take schit personal, but your ignorance is disgusting... If you were to even murmur the bull your talking about now to me in public Id eat your ass alive (which you might enjoy)
Your Real Tough behind that computer screen...
Lets get real personal and talk about eachothers moms now...

Oh yes. I know you. I know your type. You Hitler-Youth wannbes were around when I was in college too. Now they call it "youth ministry." Whatever works.
Yes, you learned a lot at Nazarene College. They taught you well. When I think "born again Christian"... based upon the above, you're just the guy I think of.
Oh, and good luck in the insurance business. I can see that you are well tempered to work with all sorts of people who might disagree with you. I can't think of anyone I'd rather have to be my insurance advisor than you!
And I do find your fractured English somewhat refreshing. I've heard of "kick your ass" and "kiss your ass" but I've not heard of "eat your ass." Is that a Middle East thing? There is a country near the Middle East (but not an Arab state) where the motto is "Where men are men... and sheep are scared." Maybe that's where you got it.
But for the sake of argument let's assume "eat your ass alive" is meant as a physical threat.
No, son, I'm not afraid of you. You want to come out here and "eat my ass alive" just hop on a plane, come to my door, and show me just how tough you are.
You and Rick and a few other bullies here just see your role in life to beat the hell out of anyone that dares get in your way. Well, here I am... in your way... and you don't much like it do you?
If I'm not afraid of Rick... and you're no Rick... why do you think I'm going to live in fear of you?
By the way, is there ANYONE on this board that you respect, or even like?
Rick
I respect YOU Rick, for your warmth, your kindness, your generosity and most importantly for the empathy and sympathy you exhibit to all of those in your life whom you disagree with.
Oh and you are the perfect person here to demand that anyone post an apology for anything... because we all know your s--t doesn't stink.
