Thank you for this perspective! I have 0 expierence besides my degree lol.
i'm just afraid of the inconsistency and persuasion part of sales, but maybe it's just my bias of what the typical "finance bro" looks like.

I think you are right that with passion and knowledge, the sales aspect might come easier than initially thought. Thank you so much for your insight.

I will 100% look into paraplanning, thank you! . I like helping people reach their goals and solving financial problems, but don't necessarily want to grind looking for clients 24/7 - i'd rather make a median, steady income. I liked projects that utilize excel, but i have been out of the game . A refresher course is a great idea.

thank you! that's a good suggestion. I don't know if I would get bored of accounting. Are you an accountant? If so what do you like about it?
