    Possible Trip Chance

    Wish me luck guys. For the past year i have been battling for a trip to Barbados the top 55 in sales in the nation get to go. I am currently at 27 and the contest ends end Of Feb. So i have to hold on for a bit over a month.

    Good job Bob! You're selling in the wrong state. Notice the big retiree states. NM, PA (were I'm at) and FL are
    at the top. Hop on over here and be number one!

    Are all you guys going together at the same time? Can you take the family?

    Hey RK i actually already am there. Most of my clients are in PA i am licensed in NJ too but i live right near the Walt Whitman Bridge . I grew up in PA so that is where i sell mostly. Just got home from an appointment in Lansdale PA as a matter of fact.
    Yes it would be myself and my Wife everything included. If i get this one it would be the 3rd Trip i would have won in 8 years doing this. The other 2 places were Dominican Republic which we did not go on and the other one was Paris France which we did go on.

    They are looking for agents but you would have to be able to get to our office which is in PA and be able to attend meetings. I went to get licensed in Florida once but i did not like what they tried to do with the fingerprints from when they do a criminal check to do a license. All other states just pull them from the original State you got certified in for like $40 or so. They wanted to run them from scratch which cost like $400 .

    No lol it is really worse then that. First thing you have to do is get your Health License . Generally this is a test that is beyond hard. I have actually twice seen women coming out of the test facility (This was 8 years ago. ) crying. Basically because they were frustrated they kept failing over and over. Every time you take the test it costs money. Also a lot of the companies you sell you have to get certified with to sell and that cost money too. Once you get that licence-and go through a background check which cost a good amount then you can apply at other states. Many states you just pay an amount and they pull your fingerprints from the original state for a small fee . Some states may not even charge if you already have a licence . Some states are expensive(Hawaii i think is like $600 ).
    Being a broker i sell many different products. I make a nice living but because i have built up a large client list. I like being a broker better because even though it is more work i can offer way more then just a Captive( An agent who sells one company only-Like someone working for AARP and ONLY selling AARP) Agent. So i can sell AARP but i can sell other things too.

The actual announcement will be mid-month around the 17th or so . But they said it looks like i can start to get ready for Barbados !!! I am still a worrier i want to see it in Black and White lol.

    Thanks guys i am looking forward to it. Will have to come home 1 day early for business reasons but that is Ok everything will be done by then. Want just 1 day to hit the beach lay there with a drink and officially say i was on a Beach on Barbados and i will be happy.

    Will be interesting to see where this beach ranks to some others i have been at. The best was Lady Elliot Island that was in the great Barrior reef . Small island one small runway for small planes. The 2nd Best was Lanzarote Canary Islands . Curious to see how this one will be.

    Here is Lady Elliot Island ...

    Thanks guys i am looking foward to it. Going to set up the Airfare today. I think we will stay at the Hampton Inn i LOVE their Park and Fly. I recommend them to anyone that travels. You get the room, breakfast (Better then just a Continental) Plus they watch your car in a secured lot while your gone. Plus on top of all that they drop you off right at your gate.

    Debating if i will upgrade the airfare. Regular airfare is included but upgrades are on you. If it is only $300 or so more Per Person i will probably do it. If it is $1000 Per Person forget it lol.
