I used to work as an intern for one of the large brokerage houses that was sold to BoA in a fire sale in 2008 ( I will let you guess which one) and I hated it.
I was given a list of names and a script, I would get someone on the phone and say “hello mr. moneybag, this is $tarving_Banker from so and so group ( Most FA actually work in groups, some groups are as small as two FAs, some large ones are 5 or 6) at so and so Bank. We have some very interesting investment opportunities…”
Back then the Fed was hiking int rate and a lot of people are getting worried about their bonds, so we hustled bonds. But truth be told most of the people worked in that outfit knew $hit about bonds. All you need to do is picking up the phone, get people to not hang up on you, and convince them to hand over $100K to open an account. Most people would quit after 6 mo becuase they cant establish a book.
I think private banking might be a better option if you are smart, have the charter, and went to decent school.
