Anyone know of the best way to make a lot of money in sales? What industry is best? I have a degree in accounting, but I'm wanting to sell whatever is going to make me the most money in the long term.
Meaning that I don't want to be capped at 80K a year, I'm wanting to get into an industry where a sales person can make millions in a year. Thoughts?

Investment sales. Convince people to let you invest their money, for a percentage fee.

It's not thieving if they agree to the risks right?

No you don't, and anybody that trusts someone that can't form a contraction properly with $50,000 deserves to lose their ass.

It's grueling and the top 20% make 80% of the money. Of that 20%, it breaks down again. 20% of that top 20 earns 80%. (4% of the whole making 64% of the money). If you're good, it's awesome. If you're not, it sucks.

I sell timeshare, OP. Best I've seen personally is $480,000 in a year. Best I've seen with a degree of separation is $800,000. It's not millions, but it's good money.

You will have months when you do jack shit and the person next to you literally just picks up the phone and says "Hello, X ? Great I'll connect you with a manager so he can better explain to you what this is about." And get a sale worth in commission 2 x times your salary just like that.
I fucking hate this world.
