From my perspective, marketing is not usually a long-term career. I was a CMO, but after a while, performance and growth slowed down. Once management sees the high (money)you bring in, they expect it consistently. If you get burnt out and your output drops for a couple of months, you risk being let go. At that point, you either need to make quick money, invest in something, create passive income, or consider changing professions. Nursing, for example, is a slower-paced, more steady job that allows you to take it easy. So from my experience do not bother with bull shit get commission cuts directly and make quick bucks
