The Time to Rethink Financial Services – The reality of our present global economic crisis is that just about everybody got caught flat-footed when it came to the true severity of the current financial problem.  As this meltdown has shown, it’s highly questionable if the traditional diversified approach for wealth building strategies and wealth preservation—all based on financial instruments tied to the global economy—will work in the future.  Also, it’s interesting that despite the efforts of the financial planning community, less than 3% of the population has a written financial plan.  Clearly it is time for individuals to rethink how they obtain financial advice and services.  And it’s time for you to rethink what services and advice you really need.
