Plan No. 597. Insurance Puts Man Through University
The second year of my course at the university I almost decided to sell insurance. Several of the boys, the summer before, had piled up profits as high as $800 net in that work.
Some of my friends went out and received training for two months before the summer vacation. They sold insurance in communities where they were well known. One of the boys, for his summer’s work, netted more than $500. He sold exclusively to the farmers of Illinois.
A man who goes out during the summer from the university and makes a good record, brings himself to the attention of the insurance company and oftentimes secures some excellent opportunities after his college course is finished.
