PFS Primerica Cult Abducted My Girlfriend ripoff liars victimized us Swansea Illinois
Primerica is a business cult. I've been the good boyfriend and attended the "ra-ra we're changing the world" meetings to support my girlfriend but it's terribly discomforting. It's so full of nonsense and laced with brainwashing tactics. I get in trouble when I don't get excited when she gets promotions, which can happen in this company like every other week. I get in trouble when I say I don't trust the company. Citigroup isn't some awesome company. If they were so great, they wouldn't be tied into Enron at all. From the outside looking in, the company goes something like this.....you come in, pay $199 for liscencing which is okay by me. Then you give them a list of names which after that point, you become useless.
My girlfriend just went to the Ozarks for a "ra-ra" rally. It was a life changing experience all for the wrong reasons. People told personal stories about how their lives were great because they could stay at home and raise their kids or they told a story about how they can provide their family with whatever they financially needed. What it comes down to is that the VERY few who earn the big money can do this but for the average Primerica worker who makes $750 a month, it's all a dream. The line they put out is that money can make you happy. It's a shallow way to motivate people. Of course my girlfriend worships money and thinks it will, of course, make her happy.
Another way they appeal to her and others I guess is that by working for Primerica, you will have respect from your family and friends. Not true. I don't respect anyone who gets money for nothing, one of the key aspects of recruitment. Gone are they days of earning your money.
recruits to rid themselves of anyone who is negative about Primerica. That's why I can't talk to her about this stuff. So why she slowly gets sucked into this cult and further away from me, I ask anyone who might have been in this situation for any help. I'll introduce her to this site because I know much more now about why I never trusted Primerica.

Eventually they will convince your girlfriend to let them handle her money. They have advertised themselves as a Credit Counseling Agency where I live. They "help" people with credit issues or are buried in bills.
They have the family sign a contract and have the paychecks sent directly to Primerica who in turn is to pay their bills, invest some money, and issue the customers weekly living allowances.
I have personally watched this happen to three families. The people have had to file bankruptcy due to the way their money was handled by Primerica but had no legal recourse against them.
As I said, be very wary because, yes they do brainwash people and they definately have cultish tendencies.
Good Luck!
