[quote=Anonymous]DH is about to switch from a salary based job to a sales/commission position. He will be salaried for the first 6-12 months to give him a chance to build up a portfolio of clients. I have a very steady gov job and the potential for income from the commissions is at least double what he is making now, but there's always the possibility that he wont get as many sales as we'd hope for, especially in the beginning. Its in the finance industry and there are a lot of companies hiring for this position so it seems there is market demand. He has also been offered a this type of position with multiple companies, so it seems like they see in him what it would take to succeed. He's been working in this field as a number cruncher for a while, but getting clients is the next logical step (however scary it is for his risk-averse wife). Anyone want to share their stories that will (hopefully) make me feel better?[/quote]
