Dear Licensed Agent,

How are you doing out there? It’s a crazy ride. Whether you voted for Donald J. Trump or not, I figure we are all affected by this whirlwind of change. As a top-notch provider of insurance continuing education, it has been challenging for us to deliver the up-to-date and valuable insurance continuing education you deserve, which I take pride in offering.

It is also forcing me to consider retiring years before I’d hoped. After 26 years of offering quality insurance continuing education, through five different presidents, Trump 2.0 is not a normal presidency. As such, it is making me reevaluate the best use of my talents and knowledge of government programs and economics. I will publish a full blog shortly to elaborate on my thoughts in more depth in the coming weeks.

Since some of these changes will impact our insurance continuing education schedule immediately, I believe it is crucial to share this message with you now so that you can schedule your classes and participate in this critical discussion.

In the coming months, this is what you can expect from Bryan Ventures:

  1. I need a break from our teaching cycle and an opportunity to dig into other business ventures like publishing my book, enhancing our online course library, and expanding my YouTube channel. I reduced the number of classes offered in November and cancelled all LIVE classes for December 2025.
  2. Historically, we scheduled to teach six 4-hour classes each month, or 24 live instruction hours. For 2026, we consolidated this to four courses, totaling 16 hours of insurance continuing education each month.
  3. Typically, we would have published classes for 2027. I have not done so because I am unsure what the future of live classes at Bryan Ventures will look like.

What this means is that if you prefer LIVE INSURANCE CE CLASSES, you should register in advance to ensure the classes are available when you need them.

If you’ve never attended our classes before and wonder if they’re worthwhile, I can tell you that there is a reason agents say, “It’s the BEST CE!” We discuss several important issues facing Americans today—and things most of us agree upon.

We should work toward easy access to quality healthcare at an affordable price. –If you agree with this statement, and likely you do, I encourage you to take our classes, GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE OF HEALTHCARE, WHAT IN THE WORLD DO WE DO ABOUT HEALTHCARE, and RETIRE HEALTHY & WELL.

The growing disparity between the wealthy and the middle class is a significant economic issue. –Please take our classes ECONOMIC (IN)EQUALITY and BUILDING ABUNDANCE, where we discuss what caused this problem and how to fix it.

The growing national debt, the Federal Reserve’s choices, and other financial legislation have an impact on our economic stability. –Our classes FINANCIAL FRACTURES and MAKING MONEY are designed to discuss these critical macroeconomic issues.

Things are getting unaffordable for most Americans, and this is a real problem. –No doubt. We tackle this problem and others in our classes, MIDDLE CLASS GAP and LIVING YOUR BEST RETIREMENT.

When I consider retiring, I think of how much I will miss all the wonderful agents who attend. You bring me joy and perspective, and you bless me. I’m not sure if I will be able to stop teaching altogether, but our schedule will be reduced. Be sure to check out the upcoming LIVE INSURANCE CE CLASSES and register today.

Godspeed, my friend. Godspeed.

Peace,
