I was told that a people person, which I am considered to be, is a huge factor.

I posted above you about passing the licensing exam, But I am confident my people skills, likable personality and raw skill to sell will play a major part in my projected success.

You need to be personable, very determined, you cant let rejection way you down, you need to be smart but you dont have to be a genius(I have found they normally dont make the buisness because they are very hard to get along with). If you can do all that and dont give up a financial advisor can ultimately be very rewarding.
