  • Mr. Nelson - an insurance agent from Nebraska who is chair of the National Association of Life Underwriters Sales Illustrations Task Force (NALU)
  • I sincerely believe we have a flawed instrument in today's sales illustrations.
  • ...we did not communicate the impact of change as well as ...we should have.
  • Our biggest mistake would be to delay.
