“Main Street Money Part 6” is a segment of a special to our radio show that we had done here in Happy Valley with Mark Matson, my investor coach, when he came through on his bus promoting his new book and PBS special, “Main Street Money”. Mark and I pull back the curtain on the financial services industry as we talked about investing, Wall Street, insurance, the bullies, and why most American investors have the cards stacked against them.

Tastes Like Chicken! Smells Like Fish!
04/26/2012 by
Every once in a while, I run into an investor who bought a financial product that, upon reflection, may not have been totally appropriate given the individual’s personal and financial circumstances.
Not that the investment was completely “wrong”, but perhaps a different product or approach may have better met the client’s goals and objectives.
One thing you can do to help keep this from happening to you, is to find out who the advisor works for. I don’t mean the specific company that employs him or her, but the type of company that employs the advisor. That information can go a long way to help you understand whether the financial advisor’s loyalty is to you, or to the employer.

You Don’t Know, What You Don’t Know

Hidden Fees! They are all over the place when it comes to investing.
At least once a month, an investor tells me that another advisor offered managed accounts where the one and only portfolio cost would be the advisor’s fee. Often the fee quoted would be somewhere between 1.25% and 2.25%, plus or minus a little bit. That other advisor would say that there are no other costs and that everything else is free or all inclusive and that absolutely no other expenses would apply.
