Everyone Deserves Good Financial Advice. Everyone....

The Compound and Friends ·

2019/07/18

Once upon a time, quality financial advice was only available for millionaires and the sophisticated investors who had the expertise to find the right advisors and understand exactly what they were getting.

But times have changed, thanks to an innovative wave of new advisory

“Student debt has negatively impacted many American’s lives, but it’s not a crisis that I believe warrants an expansion of the government balance sheet to the tune of multiple trillions of dollars. Like anytime the government puts their thumb on the proverbial scale, actions have repercussions and should be carefully weighted ahead of time.” Andrew Thrasher (@andrewthrasher) blogs at Thrasher Analytics is an active participant on Financial Twitter.

Investing as a Hobby (Tadas with David Schawel)

2019/07/05

“Where investing as a hobby might be sensible is with a small amount of your assets that you can afford to lose, and that you can handle psychologically. Being under the illusion that diving into investing in a meaningful way will result in above average performance is dangerous and likely to end poorly based on historical studies.” David Schawel (@davidschawel) is the CIO of Family Management Corporation and is a veteran observer of the financial markets.

2019/06/27

“The moral of this story is obvious. We all do better when we have something to aim at. That’s why proper benchmarking is so important. In the investment world, it means a standard or measure that can be used to analyze the allocation, risk, and return of a given portfolio.” Robert Seawright (@rpseawright) who blogs at Above the Market is a long-established figure in the investment blogosphere.

Who is the most disruptive person in wealth management? It's not a robo founder. Or an index ETF CEO. Or a blogger. In fact, it is Shirl Penney, the founder of Dynasty Financial Partners, whose platform for breakaway brokers who want to become independent advisors and own their own firms has now amassed almost $40 billion in client assets over the last ten years. Shirl has changed the way wirehouse brokers and other captive financial advisors at large firms have looked at independence. He's built

Perth believes, as I do, that countries with a strong rule of law and respect for both civil and human rights will make for better long term investments than countries that are lacking in these areas.
