As a self employed agent, I'd still work for them but although their products are good for life for current policyholders, they can't be purchased after the age of 65. My market would be very small now that we are FROGS!

It used to, and still does, make me angry when people say insurance companies are only in it for the money! It may be true of some companies but I can assure you there are companies, like AFLAC, out there that actually want to help you. If you've ever been the recipient of supplemental catastrophic insurance policy proceeds you already KNOW the benefits!

In the years I worked for the NYS DMV, I only remember one occasion that I interacted with an AFLAC employee. I still distinctly remember her to this day because of her positive and enthusiastic attitude toward her employer. Seems like it was positively a ducky place to work!

As for my employeer, let's just say that I was happy to have a decent job, appreciate that they cooperated in dealing with my physical limitations making it possible for me to reach retirement age without having to ever go on disability!
