Are you eager to join the hundreds of people already profiting as insurance agents? Are you Feeling overwhelmed by the vast material, tight schedules, or fear of retakes? Well, I have something to tell you… Over the years, I’ve helped more than 200 people earn their insurance license. Most wanted the same things: a better lifestyle, more family time, or a higher income. But many saw their goals blocked by the exam—dense with technical terms and questions that felt overwhelming. From my experience, nearly 87% of the candidates I worked with had failed once or felt stuck.

The retired four-star general and and bestselling author of My Share of the Task shares a powerful new leadership model Former General Stanley McChrystal held a key position for much of the War on Terror, as head of the Joint Special Operations Command. In Iraq, he found that despite the vastly...

In the first book, Ben had ordered a strange object from eBay. It turned out to be the missing part from an alien spacecraft. One with an AI that needed a crew so it could pass itself off as a non-AI ship. Having survived their first adventure in space, they now had a new, larger, and much faster ship. Returning to Earth should have been the easy part. They also had a wedding to plan. Unfortunately, nothing goes as planned. They are sent to a new destination in space to meet with a new alien species, with whom the other aliens' first contact didn't go very smoothly. Along the way, they ...

Many felt blocked by the Property & Casualty exam — dense with technical definitions, policy forms, and tricky distinctions. From my experience, almost 80% of candidates who struggle do so not because of lack of effort, but because they try to memorize instead of understanding the logic behind the material. That’s the real challenge: it’s not about intelligence, it’s about structure. With the right step-by-step method, everything becomes clear, logical, and easy to retain — no more endless, confusing manuals.

Daniel Baker, Sue Glitch, Leon Price, and Vicki Ferdinand are embarking on a new adventure. They discovered a clue about the location of the missing alien race, the one that predates all of the known species in the Collective, but no trace of them has been seen in 100,000 years. They need to recruit additional crew members for the mission. The trip will take months just to travel one way. They pick up some skilled mechanics and what they assume will be plenty of spare parts. Unfortunately, what they discover will require more than they brought with them. They find a war-ravaged planet, ...

The crew decided to split up. They send the Shadow to keep trying to stop the warring parties in M33, while the Stardust III heads back for upgrades and some rest. The situation in M33 turns out to be much more complicated than they initially thought. Last-minute crew adjustments caused more stress than expected, and tempers are flaring. They rescue more stranded aliens, some of whom don't want to be rescued. Then, they rescue an alien that can only tolerate small amounts of regular air and would die if exposed to normal food or water.

Benjamin, Mark, and Chloe were all set to graduate college in a few weeks. Ben had ordered a strange object from eBay to use as cover art for a book he was writing. It looked really cool, like a slightly charred old military artifact from 70 years ago. It was possibly part of an engine. After cleaning it up (it was found in a cow field), he placed the strange device on his dorm room desk directly over the wireless charging port. That woke it up. Unknown to him, the disabled starship hiding on the moon could now communicate with the missing part. The ship needed two things: 1) The missing ...

Ben, Chloe, Mark, and the others are off on another adventure, back where they had just stopped one interplanetary war. Now, they are searching for the mystery ship. What could it be up to? They rescue two new beings, but things go awry as their planet doesn't even want them back. Then they discover some more refugees, only some are not what they claim to be, and they land in the middle of another war, all while planning a wedding between Meera and Dylan. After that, the ship finds a derelict that looks like it came out of a 1950s campy movie, only one that someone shot full of holes.

This book introduces the ‘Scattered Worlds’ universe, where an alien race, the Lenovians, performed what should have been a normal “weapons test." However, their experiment went disastrously wrong, creating thousands of scattered worlds, as if someone had blended them all and then randomly pieced them back together. Jake Anderson was on his way to a night class at UNH when his car unexpectedly crashed into an impossible wall of snow beside a pool of lava. He now finds himself in a chaotic world, a blend of vastly different environments. Walking just under a thousand yards in any ...

An ancient derelict yields some unexpected small surprises, and the crew acquires some unusual new crew members. Mee Keralatazaku, the rather troublesome ruler of the planet Kanpripticon, has them take her to a very strange and secretive location. When they return, all hell breaks loose as the Kipitz try to kill Mee Keralatazaku and everyone else on Kanpripticon. She, who must not be annoyed, is now very, very angry.

Brian Long awakens in a strange and unfamiliar world. He has no idea how he ended up in the body he now inhabits. In the world he finds himself in, the females are all biologically mute and are heavily oppressed, living in a state of abject slavery. Most males consider females to be just slightly more intelligent than cattle. There are about eight women for every male. He now faces a moral dilemma: should he take the easy route and accept the happy harem world he now finds himself in, or should he choose the much harder and potentially far more dangerous path to try to repair an obviously ...

The crew of the Stardust III plans to enter the portal and explore the source of the mysterious radio beacon in the M33 galaxy. On their way there, they discover ships full of refugees fleeing one disaster, only to be heading into another. Then, they are almost ready to enter the portal, when survivors, displaced from Earth, are discovered in a place where it is impossible for them to be. Finally, fully equipped, well-armed, and with a small fleet of ships, they enter M33…Only to discover that not all answers are what you want to hear, and that one race is attacking the damaged ships…

Collins, SJ, describes the development of the Jesuit order in the US against the background of American religious, cultural, and social history.

The Earth Space Force Military has a problem. Something so dangerous that they need the ultimate distraction. A way to keep all the news stations away from it. They need them to focus on it rather than the massive alien ‘thing’ being lowered into a pit in the desert near Area 51. They have decided that Keith and nine of his crew will be that distraction. They choose to drop off Keith, the hero starship captain, and a bunch of alien women off at Comic-Con for a surprise appearance. That is one of their problems. They also encounter several new and very dangerous alien races and must deal...

Benjamin, Chloe, Mark, and Kibbiea are off on a new adventure, much further away than anyone has ever traveled before. They are heading out to identify the source of a mysterious signal they detected.

Daniel Baker was an engineer at Raytheon Shipboard Systems. He was getting ready to move into the small cabin he had just bought that was being renovated. Sue Glitch was the “clueless tourist” who had literally dropped into his life. Something (almost everything) about her story screamed “not quite right.” She claims that “We are from Zealand, the newer part.” Just who is this strange girl who just dropped in? Or what? The answer is out of this world… When fate gives you the chance to drop everything and go on the adventure of a lifetime, you dive in…

The modern gods are gone; they have been removed from power by the old gods. The old gods are back: Greek, Egyptian, Norse, Roman, Hindu, Aztec, Celtic, Japanese, Chinese, Babylonian, and many others. The first thing they do is kill off over 1 billion people who have been judged as Evil. They also eliminate the weapons of all of the militaries, all nuclear power fuel, and waste. Gordon Anderson was a clerk at a 7-11, and he was (as usual) late for work. That is suddenly the least of his problems. The world is changing; everything is in turmoil. However, the most disturbing fact may be that ...

The Earth Space Force Military has a huge problem. The massive alien Ogre that they had earlier fought was only an immature little one. The full-grown ones had found some derelict starships and were about to find one with an FTL drive. Keith and his crew were tasked to sneak in and destroy the derelict that contained an FTL drive before the Ogres could find it. To do that, the Meduala sent them a living weapon to assist with the battle. One that the Meduala has spent thousands of years trying to deal with. Is the new weapon more of a problem than the Ogres? The Ghost Ships that contacted ...
