However, for a thousand or so &#8211; this is a guess, since Allstate has not been transparent in their statistics &#8211; agents whose books had been confiscated or appropriated, must have had at least lost $100,000 and many sleepless nights &#8211; it had been brought up in our Facebook group that someone had committed suicide &#8211; a rumor I could not confirmed.<a name=\"_ftnref2\"><\/a><a href=\"#_edn3\" name=\"_ednref3\">[iii]<\/a><\/p><p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"wp-image-1238 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/paulyshao.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Suicide-Pic-Redacted-and-Revised-2-156x300.jpg?resize=255%2C490&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"255\" height=\"490\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archive.paulyshao.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Suicide-Pic-Redacted-and-Revised-2.jpg?resize=156%2C300&amp;ssl=1 156w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/archive.paulyshao.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Suicide-Pic-Redacted-and-Revised-2.jpg?w=292&amp;ssl=1 292w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 255px) 100vw, 255px\" \/><\/p><p>Allstate used production quota (e.g., Lyles v. Allstate) and minor infractions (e.g., Jourdan v. Allstate, <em>et al<\/em>.) of the rules and regulations of the company to rob agents of their agency, which each agent had paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to acquire. I paid a sum of $339,767.91 for a book which had a $1,445,906 premium income for Allstate annually (homeowner and commercial policies) or semi-annually (auto policies), among which Allstate would have paid me annually or semi-annually a sum of $144,590.60 to serve the book. Allstate owned the book but my payment of $339,767.91 entitled me a 10% cut (financial interest) of the incomes from those policies&#8217; premiums. Once Allstate appropriated the book. They would pay an employee-agent in the Direct Sales Department to serve the book. If, say, the employee&#8217;s pay was $50,000, Allstate would be able to pocket a sum of $94,590.60 (=$144,590.60 &#8211; $50,000). Or they gave them free of charge to another agent and paid him\/her 3.5% (= $43,377.18) of the premium to serve the book; in such a case, they pocketed a sum of $101,213.42 (=$144,590.60 &#8211; $43,377.18) into the corporate pocket. These increases of incomes mean the company was highly profitable, which boosted the value of the stocks. The higher echelons of the company could make a fast buck by cashing in their stock options. For example, CEO Tom Wilson netted more than 21 million dollars selling shares earlier this month (6\/2022). (Steve Daniels, <em>Chicago Business<\/em>, June 7, 2022.
