What advice would you give to a current student who wishes to pursue your career?

It’s not difficult to be an insurance agent, but it’s quite tough to achieve to goal. Keep consistency is the key. Insurance agent is not a sale agent but someone who keen on to help people solve their financial problems in terms of loss prevention.
