As someone who has to call people for a living, it would really be nice to just say "not interested, thanks". I know that doesn't work with people who are purely telemarketers, but for individuals who call you to try and transact business, they'd really rather NOT waste their time on people who aren't buying. Then again, it's hard to tell the difference, I know. This is why I'm glad I get my phone numbers from the phone's owners at trade shows. HATE calling people I haven't met. But I also hate people who drag all the info they can out of you, then screw you for all the hours you've put into helping them by going with someone else. If you know you're going to buy term insurance with some fly-by-night internet company, PLEASE don't make me drive to BFE twice and do a financial plan for you.
Sorry, had to get that off my chest.
