The Reasons I Joined The Insurance Business

Gosh, ever since I told my friends that I’m in the insurance business, a lot of them started looking at me as if I’m trying to sell them something. It’s not really their fault, considering that I personally had those thoughts about those people too.

Then why did I join the business?!

It’s not about the money. There are much easier ways to make money, but insurance truly isn’t it. It has so much hassle and bad rep that it’s crazy to think that anyone would buy any type of insurance except from trusted friends. Even then, no one truly thinks that it’s necessary, or barely anyone knows the financial limits of certain policies and such.

People die all the time. People get sick all the time. People would always want to afford the best treatment but in reality it’s probably out of their grasp.

That’s why I joined this business. I wanted to learn more about the inevitable and how to prepare for it.

A lot of them don’t understand. They are like, “oh, I’m already holding unto 4 policies” but they don’t know what those policies can do. Maybe they even think that one policy is more than enough and encompasses everything that might happen to them. Or perhaps that one insurance company looking after their interests in more than enough?

I hope to educate and to share my knowledge to all who are willing to learn. Learn about how they can save enough money to get married, have a child, retire. Plan for themselves a financial route so that perhaps they can retire early and enjoy their money while they are young.

I’m not in it for the dough. I’m in it for the learning experience of sharing information with others, helping them with their backup plans. I’m here to dispel the misconception that every insurance agent is out there for your blood and money, and that there are those who are there to help.

After all, my money-making ventures are made online. ;)
