About this listen
In this episode of "Office Hours with Gary Allen," Gary delves into the complex world of financial and insurance advisors that CTA members encounter. He illuminates the critical differences between fiduciaries and non-fiduciaries, emphasizing the importance of understanding these distinctions to make informed financial decisions.
Gary explains how fiduciaries, bound by law to act in your best interest, contrast with non-fiduciaries, who are only required to recommend "suitable" products, potentially leaving better options unexplored. He warns against the conflicts of interest inherent in non-fiduciary relationships, especially those that operate on commission-based models, urging educators to seek advisors who are fiduciaries 100% of the time.
Gary also touches on the role of insurance agents in financial planning, advising caution and thorough vetting when considering their products for retirement savings. This episode is a must-listen for CTA members aiming to navigate their financial futures with confidence, offering insights into selecting advisors who truly align with their best interests.
