- Back to the Future

Primerica Has the Solution
As the economy continues to fight its way back, many Americans who managed to hold onto their jobs still fear that history will repeat itself, according to the USA Today.
Anyone with a job that could potentially be done by a robot or a computer is looking over their shoulder now more ever, and, while the forecasts might be improving, the long-term outlook could be perilous for many people.
“Although most economists expect the U.S. job market to register at least small gains this year, many Americans who have a job still fear losing it,” the USA Today reported recently. “Many who don’t have a job fear they never will find one. And many in both camps worry that the recession, which officially ended a year and a half ago, speeded up the inevitable changes in the workplace.”
It’s simply the nature of our economy to experience an unstable job market, according to some experts.
“The U.S. economy churns a lot, more than in most countries,” said Harry Holzer, a Georgetown University government professor and co-author of Where Are All the Good Jobs Going. “A lot of jobs are created and destroyed, and it creates a lot of anxiety. In a recession, the insecurity is even worse.”

This is the time of the year when people commit to new personal, business and financial goals, but the success rate is another story.
“Most New Year’s resolutions have the shelf life of a popsicle, and financial resolutions are no exception,” The USA Today reported this week. “By this time next week, millions of people who resolved to save more, get out of debt and make their own coffee will be whipping out Visa cards to buy a white chocolate mocha at Starbucks. Resolutions are abandoned because they require a permanent behavior change, such as giving up sweets.”
Primerica has the answers for people who want to change their financial future:
- We teach people how to make more money by starting a new business part-time.
- We teach people how money works, so they can get their financial house in order.
“The things we’re doing are going to revolutionize our company, and they’re going to revolutionize North America,” Primerica Co-CEO John Addison said. “This company is what the world needs right now. The future is Primerica.”
Primerica is the largest independent financial services marketing company in North America. Our mission is to help families become properly protected, debt free and financially independent.
There is no time to start like the present, as we begin the first year of the second decade of the 21st century.

Even if you’ve never thought about starting your own business, now is a great time to become an entrepreneur.
Did you know that many people have found relief from the recession by launching their own business? In the second quarter of 2009, nearly one in 10 job seekers found work by becoming an entrepreneur, and the pace of new startups has skyrocketed: a 100% increase in the first quarter of 2009 compared to the previous year.1
Many had never thought about starting a business previously, but necessity led them to take matters into their own hands. Here are a few reasons why you should consider it too:
Reason #1: The workplace is changing.
Even before the recession, companies were starting to rely less on traditional full time help and more on freelance or contractors. Approximately 30% of the U.S. job market is now made up of part time or contract employees and the self employed, and many experts predict this will swell to 40% by the end of the next decade.2 So stay ahead of the curve!
Reason #2: You can keep your full time job.
The security of a full time job can be a great place from which to launch your business. You have a guaranteed income, making the risks relatively low. Maybe that’s why most entrepreneurs who launch their own businesses do so while still holding down full time jobs.3
Reason #3: It’s fun!
If you’re currently employed, you know the terrain: About half of all workers say they feel their current job is stagnant.4 If you’re bored on the job, starting your own business on the side can be an energizing and creative way to increase your income.
With all these reasons to start your own business, don’t you think it’s time you considered it? The Primerica business opportunity is a great place to start. Here, you’re in business for yourself using a proven entrepreneurial system, but you’re never by yourself – you’ll have the support of an entire company behind you!
