My Dad is an FA, and I'm probably going that way when I graduate. It all depends on who you work for. He worked for a major company and it about drove him ragged for 3 years. He was in a small market and had to do all of the prospecting on his own. It sucked. He worked 6 days a week putting in 12 hour days most of the time. He was getting next to nothing as far as pay went and it hurt our family. He recently switched to a smaller corporation that put him in banks instead of a stand-alone office. He seems to like this a lot better. My cousin does similar work for National City bank and he says its the worst job he's ever had.
Once you get established it gets much easier. You just need to find a company to work for that fits you and won't try to kill you.
