Checking every detail, even the ones that aren’t apparent, to make sure my clients are meeting their goals. Practically speaking, I accelerated one client’s goal of paying off his house and private school by five years, all the while earning him a tax credit, rather than him paying $50,000 of tax annually. Another client took my advice and bypassed a speculative investment, saving her $250,000. That is optimization! Show less More than a Wealth Advisor, I am a money therapist.
