If you're eligible for USAA -- there's not a single thing I haven't loved about the company.

I still think the most amazing thing, is the pure number of lottery winners who blow the money in no time.

The kind of people that become agents are the same kind that sell used car salesmen. They simply don't care or they see you as a meal ticket and the more they have to do for you the more they get paid. They are the sharks athletes should run away from, they are part of the problem not the solution.
