Thank you for taking your time to list this out!
That income is what really attracted me honestly. And from what you said being the 20% of people that are able to make that much on average is really better than 8 year in a corporate job.

Idk it is too good to be true 😂 and ofc I know I need to put in the amount of work and effort as well.

And I assuming you also an insurance agent?

It's quite different from my perspective. I have a lot of friends (20+) doing insurance and property. Only 1 managed to do well (unit manager in few years and is now a regional manager). A few of them doing ok, getting averagely 8-9k per month after years of effort. But most of them earning below average, quitting and rejoin 9-5 job after few years of trying. At bad times, some even get 0 sales for months.

As for corporate job, in my circle, my average performer friends are getting 5-7k after same years of experience. A few performing ones are getting 13k+ and 1 I know is getting 20k+. We also saved up a good sum of EPF which a lot of insurance/property agents don't have.

I think if you can perform, you will do well in both. But for average people, corporate job is better in terms of stability.
