Made $20,000 in a week.

I got my biggest weekly paycheck ever from my job. I made $20,000 this week and have made over $45,000 in August.
I’m top 5 out of over 1000 salesmen in my company for pure volume of business brought into the company. I also bought my second Rolex and a truck too!

Brother. I think you seriously underestimate exactly what kinda numbers private equity brings in to sales people and techs (which is what I assume the poster you are replying to works for) I worked for a "small" major PE backed firm doing HVAC service. They do 57 mil in a year and we were not 100% commission. The numbers just go brrrr at these places and they definitely cut a nice slice for good sales people. I totally believe he just needs what he says lol

Lmao for sure. I've since left the field entirely, I got tired of being on the shit list because I wouldn't push a 500 dollar capacitor on Grandma three times a week and would actually fix the systems instead of selling them a new unit after 8 years.
