Money And Finance Archives

I have been blogging for 3 years already and though I enjoy what I am doing, there are times that I contemplate on changing a career (yeah I consider blogging as a career ahahaha). And if I am not into blogging, I will be selling. Sales is my first love. As early as I can count and knew how to subtract, add and count change, my grandmother taught us how to sell. I remember that every summer she would give us money and we would use to buy and sell stuffs.. There was a time that even on school days, me and my sister would ride on our bike and look for things/ fruits that we can buy and sell. It’s fun and not to mention we got to earn some extra, which we usually spend on food trip (that later on was the culprit of our Typhoid fever hahahahaha)

As I am saying, if ever I would stop blogging, I will be in sales. And if there is one industry that is closest to my heart, that would be INSURANCE. For one, my mom raised us from insurance money. She has been selling policies for more 2 decades already. I also had a first hand experience with it.. tried taking the insurance license exam and passed. I was oriented with some of the ins and outs of this industry. And most of all, I believe that there is a need for insurance. Life is unpredictable and we need to be prepared.

Coincidentally, while I was whining about how I wanted to change a career, I was invited by Mom Friday for a lunch out with her friends from the insurance industry. Initially, I thought, they would be presenting their products and asked us to share it with our readers. Of course, I would be very much willing to do that as I have mentioned, I believe in insurance. Surprisingly, what Darwin Uyco and Christine Lee of Sun Life Financial told us is far more interesting. No, they did not sell their products to us, they never even mentioned what are the kinds of investment Sun Life has to offer. What they told us was how it is working with Sun Life. Darwin talked about his travel incentives, the perks and privileges of being a financial advisor of Sun Life.. and a lot other things.

Financial Advisor rings as a very intimidating career.. do I need to finish finance related article to be a financial advisor? And that was one of the things that Christine explained to us. Darwin and Christine gave us a glimpse of their life as a financial advisors. They even told us the stories behind their “accidental careers”. Both never thought that they will have a job in the insurance industry.

Intimidating it may sound, being a financial advisor is actually easy.. how and why? Sun Life Financial is of course will be there to back you up. Talk about training, small talks, discussions and the likes. And if you think this job is for you, contact Darwin directly on the details below:

One of the things that is worth mentioning is how being a financial advisor is just like having your own business. You will not earn without working but the good thing is, unlike in business, you need to invest money and not to mention sweat (and blood.. dugo at pawisin short).. on being a financial advisor, you only need effort (no money involve, no sakit ng ulo involve..). You have a flexible work schedule, you earning opportunity is unlimited and the best part is you have travel incentives.
