Topics covered include:

• What elements are part of a financial plan
• What to consider when researching an investment advisor
• What is a core-satellite investment approach
• Why Schwab was fined $180 million for misleading its clients about the cash balance in its Intelligent Portfolios service
• How to decide if an investment advisor is a good fit
• Why no portfolio can be on autopilot, but they can be as simple as two ETFs
