$130k and not making it? Seems to me you need to adjust your lifestyle to your paycheck. Just my opinion making it work on <100k with wife kids and grandkids.
You may not like this, but perhaps it’s time to find a place where to build a book. I did turn down Fidelity because of their Hamster Wheel comp structure and have become a bank advisor. I am still grinding but in less than one year I have quickly exceeded their draw/guarantee, which was $100k/yr. Not to shabby for a place that will feed you leads and offer plenty of support…I think a pivot could really help: you’ll take a pay cut initially but within 3 years you’ll be in a much better place, with 2x or 3x the pay you get now, more flexibility, and a book of business that pays residuals. Just my 2 cents.
