You'll make better money in the long term as an advisor, and you'll have a much easier sale depending on what you're slinging. Plus, you keep what you kill, vs a wholesaler where you're working for the man and your "book" is worthless at the end. 

If you're looking for a different experience, sure, you'll probably be able to take the foot off the gas and coast a bit easier, but I'd rather be a successful advisor than a successful wholesaler 10/10 times.
