lesson learned today

Never ever get your hopes up so much that in the end it gets you so upset you are almost in tears.let me expain. I am going to school as some of you know to become a real estate agent. At first I was having second douts about a broker that I was going to sign with. I went to a meeting and walked away very confused. Today I desided it would be make or break with this broker and went to another meeting. At the meeting I learned of the "training" and desided that it would be o.k. for me to give this broker a chance. I knew there was a sign on fee but never did I realize that the sign on fee was so much. When I first talked to him there was no sign on fee and I did not sign on when I first talked to him. Now he has implyed this fee of $600. I came home read over my contract....still on a high of getting hands on training this week with a mentor. I even got keys!!! I contacted the broker via email to see if there was a way we can work out the fee, lets face it I do not have $600 to sign on but was willing to work for it, payment plan, anything. He nicely said no there could not be a payment thing or work out thing because my mentor that was assigned and the secertary ( btw is my aunt ) gets that fee money. So I wrote back and said I would return the keys to my aunt. I was in tears when I called her. she knows I am upset and said not to give up hope, but honestly I am. I am sure there is someone out there that does not have sign on fee's, after all tho I still have to take the state test!!! Lets hope I donot run into things like this again. I guess it is just a lesson learned.
