First, a joke:
How do you track Will Smith after a snowstorm?
By following the fresh prints.
And now, a plea:
Please help me strengthen the connection between the profession of financial planning and the following principle borrowed from the world of medicine:
Prescription before diagnosis is malpractice.
The way I see it, "prescription" of financial advice/products before having a solid grasp of the current circumstances is a lot like putting the cart a SpaceX rocket before the horse.
If this principle were widely adopted, the world would be a different (dare I say better?) place.
For now, I'll settle on infusing Leeway Planning with it by combining great technology with an effective process that begins with "Understanding" — Step 1 of the CFP Board's 7-Step Financial Planning Process.
Anyway, feel welcome to share your thoughts by sending a brief note to hello@leewayplanning.com.
Thanks for your time and may you have a swell rest of the day!
Sincerely,
Cody L. Ward
