Best Agents To Give Advice

[bill3173]

I'm pretty sure there is more than one that will fit this description. Serial posters who refuse to let us know who they are have zero credibility.

Serial Poster? That sounds a little twisted.

Today's index annuities are providing very similar income benefits so I don't think I'd miss too much in that regard. And I'm not a huge fan of VUL's.

You certainly don't have to agree with my assessment.

Thank you for your answer. I can't disagree, nor can I complain about EIA sales, they are great..and if sold correctly can be the gift that keeps on giving. However, for the reasons that you stated, I have been reluctant to give up my freedom for a few more shekels selling VA.

The painful part is when you have a client that is perfect for a VA and can't offer it, that's why I was surprised at your remarks earlier. You are in an enviable position from where I sit, the grass looks a lot greener.

I know I am not supposed to vote for myself butt "you're not the boss of me"

I nominate Wino on how to be no showed after driving 4.5 hours in LA traffic on a Saturday. After getting up a 5am! Oh for being so cocky to think he did not need a backup appointment. He is the best.

Word..... .

I have given some thought to being a RIA since I have my 65, but there are still issues to deal with going that route. No BD issues, but still state regulator issues. And there are VA's available, but I don't believe there are any with income riders for the fee only adviser VA's.

As for being in an enviable position, I guess it depends on your perspective. I look at guys who do hundreds of thousands of GDC year in and year out with envy. Wondering about their system in place to create that level of GDC. But I do love the simplicity of the Medicare side of this business. I don't stress over those clients when the market drops. :-)
