Everyone lies. Even those who claim that they don’t, are liars too.
This is especially true as I progress further in the industry. It seems that everyone is always trying to wriggle their way out. Analysts trying to improve their figures, Fund managers trying to give more assurance, agents trying to bamboozle the client, the clients faking claims on the insurer, and the insurer enticing the masses into getting something that is completely to their portfolios. (just look at how many of them call themselves the PREMIER insurer/prefererred insurer)
AHhhh, not to forget, the biggest liars of all, the many “friends” who promise to meet. Oh gosh, don’t get me started on the different lies that are generated. However, the best so far, “NO, I don’t want anything. I don’t care. Don’t call me anymore. Bye!” Btw,if you never said this, it is not you. And if you ever did, I don’t need you, good luck ploughing through the many different products in the market, and may you find someone else willing to help you.
To be honest, there are limited ways that a financial consultant can help the client, and not necessarily in that order,
1. to value add to the client’s portfolio (come on, that is why we are always selling something)
2. to help the client save money (Eh, yet, some black sheeps churn policies to the detriment of their clients)
3. give assurance and a listening ear.
In fact, that is all. And the funny part is that, when it comes to making money, everyone forgets that it is like all endeavours in life, i.e. it takes time. No wonder lottery is making so much.
Wells, this post is just to vent out at that asshole. Thanks for trying to make me feel down for a while. Thanks for making me realise that you are not a friend. And finally, thanks, for not wasting my time too.
