    OK your a nice guy but I need to tell you something you may not want to hear, but as a man I think you can handle what I am about to tell you.

    THE MARKET IS COMPLETLEY SCREWED, TO MUCH MONEY HAS BEEN LENT TO TOO MANY PEOPLE WHO WILL NEVER EVER PAY BACK THE MONEY IN THIER CHILDRENS LIFE TIME.

    THE AMOUNT OF FRAUD THAT HAS TAKEN PLACE IS UNBELIEVABLE, LENDERS ARE NOW ISSUING POST CODES ON AREAS THEY WILL NOT LEND ON.

    Ok thats enough for 1 day.

    depends how motivated you are, provided you network, get in with people who can refer it is a good industry. As people go in over their heads, remortgages will go up and it is £££'s. don;t be put off by people who are quitting because they sit on the r's and wait for people to come knocking.

    also lifetime mortgages pay dividends too, run seminars, mailers, advertise and the elderly are your oyster.

    Thanks Cazza, will be odd not working in FS, but after my last interview with a lender I cant see my self working for corporated jumped up yes man or lady!

    Good luck too!

    Tell me about it! I started working for a lender in a service centre after my A levels, other than a 9 month stint in the car industry :eek: I've always been in FS, so nearly 10 years now. After coping with training at Countrywide a few years ago, I think my County Council will be a very different employer! I've worked for my Father for the past 2.5 years and there's no way I could go back to some of the sales managers I've had in the past!

    The problem I am finding, or found, is that no matter how hard I work how hard I tried to get my name out and get the business, something took it away. Dual pricing, housing market, retention or criteria changes.

    I always thought I would be in control of my business. I was wrong, we are all under the power of the large 5-6 banks, even the government and FSA cannot control them.
    :confused:
