Can millionaires fend for themselves? Nope. I see too many brokerage statements that tell me otherwise, hear too many stories to the contrary, have met too many financial salespeople and have seen them in action.

I don’t care if we’re talking about doctors, lawyers, real estate professionals or rocket scientists – in the end, there will be very little fending and very much abuse of trust. So long as the worst products pay financial intermediaries the highest commissions to sell them, I can promise you that.

I literally wrote the book on it.
