Lifespan of a FE Agent             Go to Top

What is the typical lifespan of a FE Agent, successful or otherwise? Just wondering if these agents are in it for the quick buck or longevity...

I hope to live to be well over 85....That should be my life span.

This is a hard question to answer because we have both types of agents. Some just want a quick buck, some wont last long and a few agents will do what it takes to make it.

Think it may break down to if you are asking about FE Salesmen or Fe Agents.

I think the salesmen are Flash and Dash it is just a job,
The Agents are long term, it is their career. IMHO

I hope they can go beyond 85. Being an agent is a life-time choice if you want it to last and be successful.
