Q: I fair left the car business after 16 years as a Sales Manager and want to try my imminent at an agency..I have a good friend of 15 years who is an agent and he loves it.I want to ascertain pros and cons from any and all who are willing to offer advice. Comments,suggestions,anything that could support me with a descision would be greatly appreciated. This would take place in Columbus,ohio.Thanks in abet

A: If being an cause means that you are an independent business man then be careful.
Going into business for yourself is the way to go but it is also an extremely leathery start.
First check on competition in the area, your friend will be one of them. Try to figure out how many customers you will be expert to get and what you can make from them. Take 1/2 of everything and throw it to the Government for taxes. Then the other half to the business. Then you have to procure that extra clients so you can get a dollar for yourself to eat dinner.
Besides the taxes and overhead there is insurance to maintain. Anyone comes to your obligation, walks through your door and falls = law suit.
Any one that takes any type of advice from you and it goes wide of the mark = Law suit
Any one doing any type of work for you (shovel snow) and gets sadness = Law suit.

This is just the beginning, your NEVER your own boss, every customer that you deal with is your real Boss. They are the ones hiring you for that bit of once upon a time and paying you to work for them.

Hope this helps with the perspective part.

Best job agency Nationwide Insurance or American Family?

Oct 12, 2007 by USAGUY | Posted in Insurance

Q: I currently have an oppurtunity to effort at Nationwide or American Family. Trying to decide which one. Both are alot alike, however Nationwide is bigger. Would like responses from people who have worked at either set or know someone who works for either one. Please no answers about the actual insurance.

A: You don't say what epitome of jobs these or what city which would help us give you better answers. You might want to edit your stake and provide that info.

I have worked for both companies in the past 15 years as a state adjuster.

Based on my experiences at both companies my vote goes for Nationwide. From a claims side I felt they were change one's mind run and seemed to care more about the employee.

Nationwide is a larger company with tons more opportunity, extraordinarily if you are willing to relocate. Amfam only writes in 18 states and while they do have a growth design it is pretty conservative and it will be a long time before they get anywhere near the size of Nationwide.

The benefits at both companies were winsome the same, except that Nationwide has it's own credit union which was a great benefit.

If you are talking about becoming an agent or working in an agents intermediation both companies will require a ton of hours to be worked. I have a close friend who is an agent for amfam and he is looking to get out. He says that each year they get less and less aid from the company to help agents succeed. Plus you always have to worry about what kind of guy service your clients will get when they deal direct with the company.

I do not know any Nationwide agents so I can't view on that part.

Good Luck.

Dear Mr./Ms. ________________

I recently retired from Honda after 25 years in the obligation. I wanted to thank you for your support over the years. I appreciate those of you who referred others to come and see me. Because of that, I had a very thriving career.

If you are in need of insurance (Life, Health, Auto, Home), please consider talking with (name). You may reach him at (phone legions).

A: All-inclusive good. Changes proposed are subtle and not drastic. I would change some of the wording and phrasing. I'm not an English schoolma'm (but mom was and I had the toughest high school English teacher ever) so don't take what I'm saying as 100% flawless. If the changes in the phrasing sound too stilted, or not like language you would use, then don't use them. If you are sending this to people who distinguish you well, they will see it as too formal. In fact, you may want to write a different letter for people you differentiate on a very personal level and leave this one just for acquaintances.

The movie Sicko; No Universal Health care Scandal? [Every American should read]?

Jul 03, 2007 by pmpinoy65 | Posted in Politics

Q: The motion picture Sicko is a well documented movie that talks about how US AMERICANS don't have a universal Health Woe and that our Health care and Insurance is corrupted by greedy politicians and businessmen.
Link:
http://www.worldnetdaily.com/gossip/articl e.asp?ARTICLE_ID=56404

Some Key things in the movie
*Spoilers*
- A lot of insurance agencies rip u off and keep their money
- Doctors gets largesse pays to the most people they've denied health care
- We make fun of Canadians, Cubans, Brits, and largely Frenches but they have the BEST HEALTH CARE.
- Socialist party is good in healthcare. The media here makes it look like Sickel and Axe communist omg social gathering
- .05 for the SAME medicne compare 20-30 buck in US.
- Al Qaeda prisoners have the best Constitution Care in the US.
- Patients pay ZERO! money in hospitals.

Most of my family members ARE Doctors. After chit chit-chat, they agree how the system is corrupted

A: The silver screen is not "well documented." It is inacurrately documented. He states that cuba pays $25 per capita on helath take charge of when the actual number is more like $225 per capita. He is a true spin doctor, twisting facts & figures to earn them say what he wants them to say, instead of what they really show.

"A lot of insurance agencies rip u off and keep their money"
"Doctors gets perk pays to the most people they've denied health care"
- and you don't think there is corruption in socialistic systems?

"We fix fun of Canadians, Cubans, Brits, and mainly Frenches but they have the BEST HEALTH Fret"
- but the Canadians, Cubans, Brits, and Frenches come to America when they get in reality ill.

"Socialist party is good in healthcare. The media here makes it look like Sickel and Axe communist omg function"
- no response because I don't know what they heck you were trying to say!

".05 for the SAME medication compare 20-30 buck in US."
- only because they already paid for much of the medicine through taxes.

"Al Qaeda prisoners have the most successfully Health Care in the US"
- I doubt it. They probably get no better than the poorest Americans who get medicaid or medicare.

"Patients pay ZERO! wealthy in hospitals"
- because they already had their money taken from them at tax time!

I bet your family members who are doctors don't allow that socialized healthcare is the fix for our corrupt system.

Editing help......???

Q: If you have a few minutes to bones, could anyone please, please help me edit my paper.



For many years, people have been debating how medical insurance should be paid: Whether hermitical payment or government payment or some combination.
Private payment means one would pay for ones own insurance. Authority payment would mean the government pays for ones insurance. If the government were to pay for ones insurance, it would limit ones abilities. Also, Guidance already has to cover Medicare, Social Security, Government housing, the Federal Lodgings Committee, and the collapse of the Financial Institutions. To a lot of thoughtful people, the only way to fix the health insurance turning-point in the United States is to get the federal government to cover everyone.

In most states, individuals can be denied coverage for any include of reasons, so it is wise to request and compare more than one individual health insurance quote. The excess short-term effort that's required to apply for individual medical insurance plans is without even trying worth the long-term savings. If one is insuring ones family, as opposed to very recently oneself, there are some additional considerations to take into account. Even if one does receive coverage through an governor-sponsored health plan, one should consider the cost-saving benefits of switching to a family medical insurance rule or moving some of your family members off of your group policy into a family policy.

Most Americans receive their condition coverage through some type of group health insurance. Although large corporations with hundreds or even thousands of employees have the bargaining power to consult with medical insurance companies for custom health plans for their workers, the small proprietorship owner must still research options and compare prices from multiple providers. Since grudging business health insurance offers guaranteed coverage to all employees in a given plc, it can be difficult and time consuming for a small business owner to find the best way. Most major colleges and universities require their full-time students to have medical insurance. While many of these same schools also present oneself their own student health plan, it is wise to explore his or her options. Typically the view will provide the minimum requirements that a health policy must meet in order to set coverage under the school's policy. As a senior over 65, one is likely covered under some mosaic of Medicare plans. Changes in recent years to the federal government's medical insurance program for seniors has created a complex system with careful enrollment timelines.

Currently, we have a mixed system, where the government heavily intervenes in trim care. In Canada and Great Britain, they have fully governmental health punctiliousness systems, but a black market of private medicine exists. The government regulates which drugs are within reach on the market, through the FDA and through the agencies that fight its War on Drugs. Currently, drug companies are granted monopoly privileges called "patents" that give them the leaving aside right to sell their drug for 17 years. A few years ago, Congress passed legislation which literally outlawed the importation of cheaper drugs from other countries and prohibited the federal regulation's health insurance programs (such as Medicare and Medicaid) from negotiating for lower prices. This outfitting was repealed by the Democrats after they won control of Congress.

Britain, Canada, Japan and a numeral of other rich countries do so, and they each spend less money on health care than the United States does. They also do not have main companies, like General Motors, flirting with bankruptcy in large part because of the fetch of health benefits

Health insurers made $100 billion in profits last year, and industries of that judge are just not legislated out of business, said Jonathan Gruber, an economist. The fete that controls the White House and Congress also opposes the idea. Republicans have their own utopian notions, which habitually involve letting loose the free market for Americans to demand more intelligent care on their own. The discussion has basically been paralyzed for years. In the meantime, the problem has grown worse. In the Opinion States, forty-six million people lack health insurance, according to the most recent judgement, up from thirty-one million in 1987.

Massachusetts changed the terms of the debate. Governor Mitt Romney, a Republican, and the Submit Legislature, controlled by the Democrats, reached a deal to cover almost everyone in the state. The drawing will cut the cost of health insurance for families that do not have it and make it free for many poor families. The regal will also require every resident to have insurance or face a stiff fine. The plan breaks disentangle of the usual ideological shackles by dealing with both of the big reasons that nearly one- sixth of the U.S. residents lacks insurance. One, many people cannot afford it. Two, some who can afford it imagin
