Question:
I've gone to 3 seminar/meetngs about 3 different companies that make you think you'll be making lots of money, going on trips, and what not. But I notice few things in common. They want $100 to get started. They want you to bring all your friends family and what not. And some of the people there aren't even close to making what the speaker just said people will be making. But then again I've camed a crossed few people that had made a fortune in it. Why is that? What's the key to succeeding in the Financial industry?
Answer:
those sound like scams to me..or very shady at the very least. why would YOU pay someone to work for them?
and the reason they want you to bring all your friends and family is so they can try to sell them the same idea too (ie; get their $100 also). sure that guy might make a lot of money, but he's doing it by scamming people out of their $100.
if you want to be a financial advisor, go to a reputable firm like merrill lynch, prudential, . or even your neighborhood citibank of chase and apply to them.
good luck!
Certain parts of the Finance Industry are like a pyramid scheme, ie the people at the top make a fortune and it goes down from there. The key to succeeding is hard work, nothing is for nothing in this world and time counts. ie would you take financial advice from a 23 year old college graduate with no experience or a 40 year old with 20 yrs experience and a list of satisfied clients? My advice and success has come from hard work, you will find that it pays off very quickly!
