How come every time someone comes on and writes something positive, ironically within 24 hours 'someone else' has a negative rebuttle? Coincidence? The website obviously has someone on alert everytime something good comes up. It's understood that the larger the stream the more advertising it can command. They prey on bad mouthing reps - not sure what the purpose is, but Read what LOL had to say...

Many companies hire both full time and part time representation.  When reading the legal posting - which is required by both the American and Canadian government, you'll not that the average income is such.  The company also houses 110,000 locensed reps and paid over $500,000,000.00 to them!  Some people didn't show up for the year and consequently made $0, bringing the average down.  If we averaged all the school teachers across the US and Canada and pooled their incomes, including supply teachers and maternity leavers, the average would be a far cry from what the actual ones who worked was... The same holds true for any profession.  It is a unique company where anyone can make it - it makes NO PROMISES, it requires a lot of work - like any business you want to build.  

The reality is that the company doesn't require you to use your contacts, that's just an easy place to start. Rather, it requires you to use your mouth and speak - to build new contacts.  Regardless of the business you are trying to build, you must establish a name for yourself.  People need to know you're in business to do business with you.

The model, while appealing to some, isn't for everyone.  "Irritated by Pyramid Shills" can rest assured as 2 things are for sure. 1 - The company is not a Pyramid and 2 - no one in the company wants to hire YOU!  Negative, dull, frustrated crybabies have no part in American or Canadian business other than running coffee to the President of the company!

Primerica is looking for enthusiastic, entrepeneurial, happy people with excellent communication skills and a strong desire to help the middle market make a diffence and get better financially.  It's amazing to read so much negative stuff from people that are truly not doing much else with their lives.  They search "Primerica" on google just to come to a site like this and dump - hoping to keep someone else from taking a chance and bettering themselves... I wish both sides much luck!

Oh... and to the JOKER above - who copies and clicks the link to the Primerica disclosure page which shows average earnings, and then calls this company a "pyramid" and "they just want you to recruit more people..." If you actually took the time to read the link you posted it also shows that Primerica is a publically traded company, regulated by both the American and Canadian governments (respectively), goes through how every individual is an independant contractor... etc etc... try this link on...

I was accosted at the local Wal-Mart today by a two-person Primerica team. While my immediate assumption was that they were husband and wife, I quickly picked up on the fact that they were more likely a mentor/mentoree team instead. I wasn’t so much offended by their cheesy tactics as I was baffled by them.

How many people are actually so gullible as to think a successful insurance salesman or money manager goes to the local Wal-Mart to drum up a sales team? If these Primerica shills were as successful as I would think they’d hope to be in a similar business, they wouldn’t have to step foot in a Wal-Mart to interview prospective employees. These people aren’t selling financial products so much as they’re selling themselves.

Sadly, neither of these two jamokes grasped the first step of making a successful sale which is to divorce oneself from the desire for the outcome. From moment one they reeked of trying to delve into my pocket and social network at any cost.

No thanks.

When you sell yourself to family and friends, you do just that. If you get them to buy, you have perhaps put a few quick dollars in your pocket, but in so doing you traded integrity that you once had with the people who trusted you most. This same integrity, mind you, is integrity that you cannot easily buy back. Regardless of how big your sphere of influence might be, staying on this path will guarantee that your well will eventually run dry.

Granted, those very few select big wigs at the top of the Primerica pyramid (by the way, if you’re reading this then it’s too late to join their ranks) may earn a livng, the newest recruit however will simply soil his reputation to family and friends.

Not my bag, Baby, and if you’re smart, it won’t be yours either.

I have a brother and unlce that do not even speak to eachother right now over this Primerica [***]. He is right if your not smart enough to see that this is a pyramid scheme (a bad one at that) you'll know when your personal relationships go to [***] because of money lent/spent/borrowed. These fools called me today with an interview opportunity.

647-693-6569 is the number that called me today to their credit the lady i spoke with was very courtious and polite. Still not interested though

primerica is a pyramid scheme..i'll say mostly selling insurance, attend to workshops and convincing people to join them. and u only make money if u get someone to sign up for insurance.. something like that! not my career goal i would say..

Oh stop. You guys are a scam.

I work at a Primerica office right now. What a friggin mistake.

I was in Primerica for 15 years. Without telling all the details of my time in that company. It was my bread and butter. I made my living, but I admit to make money in Primerica you have to be able to sacrifice a lot of people who will fail.  Just like you I have learned money concepts that I think are good concept, but after  15 years in the business I can say that those concept don't work. It did not work for me and my family and it did not work for any of my 1,000 plus clients. All I did for them is provided them a very expensive term insurance and have them open an IRA. Good concept but they can do better somewhere else. I'm glad I finally decided to get out. Please learn the concept and then look at the numbers. PRI is public company, try to make your research and not stick solely to what they say. Primerica is good and so a lot of companies. Please don't be like me before. I became a hater of other companies and their agents just because they don't hold the PRI concept. And I have lost a lot of friends. Most people are good even they do not work for Primerica.

Here's a recent public news: money.msn.com on PRI

I got a phone call today from JC after I referred to his name I found he is from Primerica.  I have spent alot of money on Primerica with another firm.  Just to join it was like 300.00 dollars and then writing tests and all it was way more than I expected.  I really hope this will stop.

Jaime Black - leaves just name and number and get generic voicemail

Its important for people to realize that just because a company is legal doesn’t mean that its good and the company is being honest. Fortune tellers that charge for phsycic readings are legally allowed to charge but does that mean they are really beneficial for the average consumer?

Actually, I won't bother clicking it.  Primerica is like a big leech sucking the life blood (warm leads) out of new recruits. The people at the top of the pyramid make all the money while new recruits give away their friends and family to be sold the products and there is no training beyond selling to your closest freinds. By that point, you will fail and that’s how its designed.

Please understand this people. MLMs/pyramids are DESIGNED to bring failure to new people and keep the income going for those that got in early. Every business has a marketing plan and Primerica’s marketing plan is to sell a new recruit on the dream of becoming wealthy and this is all a a scheme to make sells to the new recruit’s friends and family and when they are done with that recruit, they will mve on to a new victim.

For sure a scammer

Some Canadians had nothing better to do so they decided to dredge up this thread that has been dormant for 6 years.
