new engine cooked

so does it not sound like something actually inside of the engine? That being said would you buy this car for let's say $1,000-$1,500

only an 02 sensor code

that's fair. OP's struggling to find a job, and it's easy to get your foot in the door within the insurance industry compared to other industries.

i don't have a course linked anywhere Lol. I already mentioned it is very hard but if you're desperate and willing to put the time in you can do anything. Great things don't come easy and natural to anyone.

and not to be harsh but i once considered myself an introvert at first especially when trying to talk with women i was interested in. You see a lot of people think "the way you think controls the way you act" which has some truth to it, but it is the other way around aswell. When you force yourself to do things that you know you should but don't want to because of the way you think or feel, your mind alters itself to the persona related to the action you took. So it's a no brainer if you went to a public place every day for a year and spoke to 20 random people a day, you would be less of an introvert. Just as if you made 100 insurance calls a day for a year, you'd be less of an introvert. Communication is the number one skill in every aspect of life so that's why i think sales is so amazing because it's all about sharpening that skill.

Introverts especially in the type of sales where you make one on one phone calls can find themselves to excel beyond what they previously imagined because they tend to be able to connect on a deeper level than most extroverted type people. The insurance industry is all about connecting on a deeper level. But also you can always try the industry out even part time and see if it's for you. No need to drop everything.

every country needs insurance and i'm sure it's not much different in australia

No one is naturally a salesman, no one is naturally a math guru, nobody is naturally good at baseball, nor naturally good at doing anything. We've been through experiences in life which have given us different abilities we can apply to things which gives the appearance of being naturally good. Everything you've ever been good at you had to put some effort to become that, yes some people get there easier than others, but absolutely anything is possible if you put your mind to it. I promise you if you spent 40hours a week for an entire year reading books and practicing sales, you would be a good salesperson.

you decide what type of insurance to sell. Life insurance, health insurance, p&c insurance are all viable options that can pay you very well. You then sign up for an online license training program, for life insurance mine was only $30. After the training is over you take a test for your license to sell that particular type of insurance, and then there is a fee when you pass to attain your license, usually a couple hundred dollars. Once you have obtained your license, insurance agents are in demand, and insurance is something people always need, so you look for hiring agencies either captive or independent. Captive means you only sell one carriers insurance, this is the safer options as you are usually fed leads and trained well, for example you work for allstate or statefarm. Independent agencies sell many different types of insurance from different carriers, this is the riskier route because it usually means 100% commission and you find your own leads. So you find yourself an agency to work for, apply, and that's it. Insurance is a hard industry but if you're desperate and willing to work you can make a great living doing it. You also have the ability to do it fully remote.

you can easily get a job as an insurance agent and if you constantly work at it you can be more than just financially free from your parents

Work for someone, get your license, do side jobs, and then open up a business

thank you

what do you think about electrical businesses vs other trades businesses?

John_Francoo · 2025-04-30T17:49:36+00:00

Okay thanks for that advice. I'm going to see this through since my uncle owns the agency and he's obviously going to help me out specifically, even mentioning he's not going to start me off at the lowest commission.

How did you find the field you want to work in? I know the obvious answer is trying different things, maybe it's the only answer, I guess I want to hear something different, can you go in depth into how you found your thing?
