[MLM Survivors Club] Re: Just a question about financial planning

Ask the guy where he got his CFP. That's "Certified Financial
Planner". Or is he a CPA? Ask his what courses and credentials you
need to do this business... CPA, PFS, CFP...

If they say, oh you don't actually need any of that, and that ANYONE
can do this... tell him he's full of crap.

I work at a Wealth Management firm. I have none of those
credentials, so I do not advise anyone about anything. I am an
office assistant. The people that DO advise clients are CPA, CFP
and or PFS.

Would you go to a doctor who never went to medical school? Would
you seek legal counsel from someone who never passed the Bar?

Probably not.

Would you give legal advice if you had no legal training and knew
nothing about the law? That would be unethical/unauthorized
practice of law. I have a Paralegal Certificate, but I still can't
give legal advice.

I hate Primerica. Someone called me here at work and tried to
recruit me.
