The other day someone who knows someone who knows someone introduced me to a “broker”. He told me he will pay for my series 7 and such and such and then after I grab him 20 accounts. So I go to this “office” and I feel the blast of how should I say…“HEAT”? I think I walked into a boiler room. A more “legitimate” one…(In some odd way) I was wondering if I should just play along get my series 7 and just leave.

Question though:

Will this decision haunt me? I mean by getting my license its a good thing . But because a small firm gave it to me, which has no credible reputation from hours and hours of research I did, will it ultimately kill me in the future when I try to apply for a much larger firm? I am not done with schooling so this is why this is even much more puzzling to me. I don’t go to a great school either, nor will a good school take my transfer. Definitely not one that will land me a job with a nice firm. However, I heard from others that  with a good gpa and  already having a license I can transfer into a  credible school. Which is ultimately what I want.

So this is my dilemma, do I get the degree at a crap school and go back to another school for more schooling…(HOPEFULLY at a better institution)

or do I,

believe this garbage get my license, leave, and transfer. I heard that wherever you get your license from (sponsor) it follows you and might hurt you. Is this true?

Please help.

Thanks for your time.
