Show Notes:

Retirement works better if you have a plan.

A lot of things that are happening in the world of technology are automating the role of a financial advisor.

Being a financial advisor is extremely entrepreneurial because you don’t get handed clients.

Very few clients want to know the ins and outs of how markets work.

Instead of competing, you can turn your competitors into your clients.

The role of a good financial advisor is to understand the clients’ needs and bring them information in a way that’s meaningful and helpful to them.

Financial advisors aren’t typically trained in the softer, more human elements of their roles.

You have to understand the life of the client before you can do a meaningful financial plan for them.

Financial products more or less sell themselves because they are driven by the financial plan.
