Joshua & Catrina Knight
Atlanta, GA
Former Occupation: Educator

Inspired to Educate
Joshua and Catrina Knight, of Atlanta, GA, thought they knew a lot about finances until they were informed by their tax professional that they should have been utilizing their tax return in a more favorable manner. Joshua found himself perplexed as to why he’d never learned fundamental financial principles before. As a former educator, Joshua knew the value of teaching others.

Seeking to improve their financial education eventually led the Knights to Primerica. Joshua recalls, “I remember thinking, ‘Why hadn’t anyone taught us this before?’ and ‘How many more people deserve to know what we learned?’ We pursued Primerica to change our lives, as well as the lives of everyone around us.”

Focused on Freedom
Before beginning his Primerica career, Joshua pursued many different jobs that he thought offered a promising potential, however, he quickly realized he valued freedom even more than a good income.

“I tried all types of jobs to make money,” Joshua recalls. “I realized I wasn’t really looking for the extra income, but the freedom. These other jobs offered a lot of things – but freedom was not one of them. Primerica has not only given me the chance to experience financial independence, but I know that I can give the same to clients and my community.”

The Knights teach their team that if they are willing to put in the work, they can reap the rewards. “That’s what makes Primerica different,” he says proudly. “You get out what you put in. The opportunities are endless. Put in the work and see where it takes you. There’s no other company that can offer you that – that’s freedom.”

A Different Kind of Company
Joshua is now passionate about taking the financial knowledge he’s learned and using it to better his community through education, preparation and organization. He believes that Primerica has given him the chance to guide his community and wishes everyone was given the same chance.

“Primerica is different,” he reflects. “The opportunity is different. The concepts are different. I could see the financial benefit Primerica would have had on my parents early in their lives if someone had been willing to sit with them. I became passionate about reaching as many families that come from where I come from: a working-class family looking for someone to show them a path to financial independence.”

The Future is Bright
Primerica’s philosophy of always doing what’s right has been a driving-force behind Joshua’s successful Primerica career. He values not only educating his community to become financially independent but instills the same mindset in his growing team. He strives to help others achieve their goals, better their futures and leave a legacy. The future is bright for the Knights and their community will continue to benefit from their dedication to helping Main Street families.¹
