A New Model For Financial Advisers?

Investors can't be too careful, suggests Ron Lieber in Finding Financial Advice in an Age of Bad Behavior.

"Planners don’t much like my notion of paying for their investment advice but then executing the trades yourself. But I still think it’s a good idea for many people. "

Mr. Lieber's credibility in personal financial planning suffers from his recent personal bankruptcy, which he was less than candid about when he went on to sell a book about his experiences. I have to wonder what ax he's grinding now.

If we start requiring life-long solvency from journalists, the mainstream media is really going to shrink!
