Very Interesting So Far - For Financial Advisors Also

Okay, here I am writing a review of a book I haven't even finished reading. In fact, I'm only maybe 1/4 of the way in. None the less, it's a great read so far. I'm in the financial advisory industry and the early years I was unfamiliar with, while keenly recalling the Altamira mid-90's history.I would highly recommend this to anyone in the industry as well as the intended audience, especially if you are a newer advisor. It's such a strong vindication as to why you should forget about 'product' and always focus on your clients' needs first. Advisors are the ones who can and need to balance what the clients want with what the fund companies want, as well as our need to earn a living. That's not an impossible combination and it's easier to do if you know where the fund industry has been and where it looks like it's going.
