Interesting.
Years ago when to a few timeshare ones but found they were way to pushy so we stopped going.
Last financial one we went to turned into how great annuities were and how they were so much better than any stock mutual fund could possibly be. Lost me very quickly but was an excellent dinner at a restaurant we had been meaning to try.
