Honesty between Players and Coaches, Insureds and Brokers

You that Old Boy who keeps telling you to do the opposite of what the coach is asking you to do.

Shoot the Old Boy.

I have the same feelings for Commission only financial planners. Shoot the Fin Planners.

A teammate is getting married and decided that he need to grow up, get his money scrum in order. And this is where the internet took a tight-head, because he ended up in some jack-ass' office, signing documents for insurance that was too expensive and that he didn't need.

He called me in a panic. "Do I really need __________?" "I just want to know about how ________ and _________, not buy a bunch of insurance."

"Why didn't you call me?" asks RuckingInsurance.com.

"Um, I did."

2 phone calls later, he's gone online to find the Life Insurance he needs at less than half the price he was quoted by the "Professional Financial Planner." Then, I sent him to the bookstore.

How much money did I make? Nothing. How long did it take me to sort him out? 45 minutes.

What did I gain?

A player who communicates openly with his coach.

What's that tagline?

Priceless.
