These former insurance agents might have left for other reasons.
Wilfred, these people make good advisers. Teach them how to earn ethically and legally because they have conscience, morals and right values unlike the many salesmen out there who are more conmen and women than sales people.
Consumers have to be more careful…the above is a confession of insurance salesman…salesman sells for commission and not your needs..If the non salesman advisers dwindle the salesmen get more concentrated and the more dangerous for you consumers.
Be discerning when choosing your adviser..he or she maybe a wolf in salesman’s clothing and it is double whammy. Neither can help you except your money to shrink.
It is a can’t beat them join them maxim.
I have met 2 insurance agents who put their clients interests first, but they did not last long, it is after all a sales job, they had trouble meeting their sales targets, either change or leave.
ReplyDaniel P,
I would like to meet the two insurance agents you mention. Kindly direct them to my website and ask them to contact me.

ReplyThey have left the industry, it was very difficult to feed their families, just selling term insurance, when everybody else is selling ILPs.
ReplyIf they are still keen in the industry but unable to feed themselves selling term, they may wish to meet me.
From what you posted, they lack mentorship. Financial advisory isn’t about just selling insurance. If they relied purely on insurance sales to survive, they have got the wrong idea about financial planning anyway.
ReplyAnother bluff the 3 year old children product by the never cut bonus company.!!! It is truly a great product to screw up the finances of some loss averse folks whose cluelessness and ignorance and fear are always exploited by self serving company and their unscrupulous agents or salesmen disguised as angels. If the agents are truly and sincere about putting these folks interest first they should work harder , even without the reward, to give the best advice to them.

“A better deal is the ICICI Bank which is currently offering 2.15%pa fixed deposit over the same 3 years period. It is also offering 1.45%pa for 1 year fixed deposit. ”
is a still better deal although it also comes with a negative return.
For the sake of your descendants , insurance agents, do something good that they can be proud of.
ICICI Bank limited Singapore Branches Fixed Deposits is better
36 months for 2.15%.
Yes, ICICI giving one of the best rates currently.
