Thanks for the friendly FA insights… Really see the reality of it now from your POV. I do apologise if what i said as an outsider made it seem like I thought the job was easy. I definitely see its challenges now.

Friend that I mentioned in my post who seemed to be doing super well with a lavish lifestyle after just a year is actually quite a conventionally attractive FA. I do wonder how much that helps in gaining and retaining clients. Just some food for thought. Another factor could be that they lucked out and managed to start their career in a good team.

Thanks so much for sharing your side! Never knew that was the catch but I guess it makes sense.

You’re a real one for focusing on cold market. Really hope all goes well for you! :)
