Is this a better career choice than correction facility officer? I'm trying to figure out what I want to do with my life.
You seem to be from texas. There is a minimum intelligence required for an illustrious career as a Farmers insurance agent. Corrections officer ( or inmate) might be better a better fit for you.

If the greatest canadian import since gordon lightfoot, @Piobaire has been unable to pass after multiple attempts, this might be out of a texan's league.

I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news

Hmmm, tough call. It's probably more lucrative, but a lot less prestigious. But the beauty of being a Farmers agent is that you can make your own hours. Perhaps you can do it in your non-guarding spare time and have the best of both worlds?

I wonder whether he could combine these two passions by serving as a correctional officer and recruiting inmates to work his downline in Farmers.

A correctional worker is certainly cool, especially if you like power and dominance (rofl), with what else can you combine other than farmers insurance? For example, my friend also works in the field of insurance, or exterior plumbing insurance, they often ask what is the essence of their desire for the development of this industry, to help people or promote a career with an excellent income. I think they do everything just at the highest level, so take care of us ordinary customers. But with a profitable business, there are always other disadvantages.

Hey everyone, a recruiter reached out on LinkedIn about a financial advisor job. Do you think it could be as lucrative or prestigious as being an insurance agent?

I know @Piobaire and others have struggled to complete their tests to be licensed, so I'm concerned about going that route. Do you think the financial advisor tests are easier or harder?

Serious responses only, please.

Only thing as lucrative or prestigious is correctional facility officer.

Well, the real question is will you qualify for student loan forgiveness with all of the fat stacks of cash you will be making...
