I went to one a few years ago. It is usually early morning, on a saturday.
What you get to do is go sit in on one of their meetings, and listen to their success stories.

Basically, it sophitiscated pyramid scam hidden in the internals of a legit company. Primerica's parent compay is Citi Group Financial (I think).

So the person that called you and asked to come to the meeting is hoping you will sign on, because his paycheck depends on it. That's one part of it.

It is all pretty much sales. what you do is sell "financial planning" to families. It sounds like a great thing, but I didn't get any farther than the first meeting.

What really turned me off, was the guy who was running this "branch" said the following:
"I want to make a million dollars a year, and in order to do that, I need 10 people working under me, making $100,000 / year".
So your salary, is based on the numder of people under you, and the amount they make.

The presentation is all fluff. There is absolutely no substance. All they talk about is how much money you can make, and how wonderfull a company it is to work for. But the kicker is, they don't come out and actually tell you how they make money, or what they sell. I would kind of like to go back to one of these and challenge them again. Would be interesting to see what they have to say.
