Lucrative Insurance

Selling insurance seems to be a highly lucrative thing nowadays. I've had friends who have given up their careers in the corporate world to pursue a self-business venture in insurance, new insurance blogs online promoting all kinds of insurance and insurance agents constantly harrassing me. I guess insurance sells by emphasizing the uncertainty of life and encouraging people to prepare for their loved ones in any unfortunate event. Perhaps I should seriously consider doing a part time job in that too!
