T.F.S.
Kenneth states he has an office at 22960 Shaw Rd. Sterling, Va....no T.F.S. office exists in the area (per T.F.S.) and there is no listing for said office in any database online.
My husband joined Primerica about 3 months ago. I must admit I was extremely skeptical in the beginning. He told me about the $99 fee and I told him it was an idiot and was wasting his time. He went to the weekly meetings, then came home telling me about how excited he was about the company and how much potential there was as far as money to me made. I, once again, thought he was crazy, but was afraid to crush his dreams by telling him this business was a scam. I just figured he would do it for a few months, realize his mistakes, and move on. Well, against my good judgement, I agreed to go to one convention meeting with him a couple weeks ago. I came back with a different outlook. It was so refreshing to see so many people rooting for one another and genuinely happy at each others successes. So many people were called up on stage to receive awards for their sales and they were very genuine with their stories.... including Ken! It wasn't all about financial success and who made the most. People were just happy to be out of their financial chains that held them back for so long. And, they were excited to be in a business that helps other people. I told my husband that I didn't want to hear anything about primerica until he could "show me the money." And, when stubstantial checks started coming to him in his 3rd month with just a few hours per week, I was a believer. I know that this is only the beginning for us, I am just glad that we found this company when we did. I have a doctorate degree and already earn a 6 figure income, but I could see myself doing this alongside my husband one day. Even though my husband and I together have a very substantial income, we still live paycheck to paycheck. I would be so relieved to finally have school loans and car payments gone and have more time to spend with my children. My neighbor has been in Primerica for years and introduced us to it, we have seen his bank statements. We have seen the bank statements for the RVP's...they genuinely are making money. Primerica is basically network marketing. If you google this, you will see how network marketing is not a scam. It's the most perfect business of our time. It allows a person to earn passive income. It allows people to build a huge business by training others who train others and so on creating a huge downline. The only people who don't succeed at this business are the ones who quit. If the business is so great, then why such recruiting techniques you ask? Well, it's because Primerica doesn't spend money on advertising, telemarketers, or paying people a set salary. Instead, they give anyone the opportunity to own their own business. You have to go out and find business. You have to go out and find recruits. After you have exhausted your family and friends list, then you have to come up with some unconventional ways to find people. Yes, that doesn't sound appealing to most. But, if you want to succeed at this businness, then that is what you have to do. Most people fail at this business because once the "warm market" is gone, they give up. Most people are afraid to invest $99 to buy their own business, but they won't hesitate to go out and spend 3 or 4 times more on the newest electronic gadget. Go ahead and say it's a scam, but it's not. If you say you can't afford to try it... I say you can't afford not to.
Ken Ripa is a scammer that preys on people who are desperate for a job. What type of company would ask you for 99 dollars and them a monthly charges to give you a job. I am sorry, but this is one of the dirties business I've seen. When Ken called me, he made it sound like a legit financial company. When I arrived to his office hey herded us to a room where a guy gave us a big speech about how good the company was. He insisted on me giving him the 99 dollars. What a scumbag!! Ain't you Ken?
If it's such a scam why would it be listed on the New York Stock Exchange???!!! Don't you think that the New York Stock Exchange would do their research before including a scam company?? Here are Friday's closing numbers:

Becoming a member is like owning your own franchise. You are the business owner. You could buy your own franchise in another business, but you are going to pay much more. For instance, do you think Subway would sell you the rights to use their Subway name for your own personal franchise for $99. NO! Of course they're not. This is a pretty cheap investment if you ask me to own your own business. And, if you follow through with getting your life license and fufilling the initial life app, you get your $99 back! If you don't believe it.. look it up yourself!

If the business is so good why does it require a 99 dollar investment? Why can the company not charge? Why can the company invest in its employees. The stock exchange means crap. You guys are running a masquerade there and fooling people who don't have jobs. This is a scam, don't do it people!!!
Ken Rippa .. Great Guy... Primerica A GREAT COMPANY has paid Me and My Family over $35k in the Last 12 months.. and even though its not $100,000 yet... I use to make $29k (before taxes) and was told what to to when to do and what to wear while doing it at a Job with bosses that i disliked... so Primerica to me equals FREEDOM... if you get a CALL FROM this gut or anyone RELATED WITH THIS COMPANY... DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR and dont let misinformed people on a unregulated BLOG, or internet site.. keep you from getting information yourself and making your own decisions. If you want to do research.. do REAL RESEARCH!!
