Some Stuff I Wrote:
To anyone who is interested: I recently left employment with a private firm that I was working for in favor of returning to work with a previous employer. While employed at this private organization over the past few years, I wrote a number of personal finance articles that were published in a proprietary financial publication. I was surfing around on the web and came across a few archived articles. I'll post one here, and if you guys are interested in reading more, I'll post more (providing I can recover them..so far I have only been able to dig up 4). They've all been approved through NASD standard compliance; so they are legitimate. These first two are actually one article that was split it into two seperate publications. It has to do with college education planning. October 2003:

Note: Some of the tax laws may have changed since 2003, so I would recommend visiting http://irs.gov for up-to-date tax information. In addition, some of the contribution limits or programs may have changed, so I would recommend consulting your financial professional. Because I am NASD licensed (though not currently actively registered due to a transition in employment), I'm prohibited from engaging in certain types of written communication without prior approval by an NASD approved compliance department/agency, so I am unable to answer questions regarding investment performance or returns. I can answer general questions about programs and such, with the understanding that I am not acting on behalf of any firm or agency; or even in the capacity of a registered representative.

Re: Some Stuff I Wrote:
Just to add my .02 cents.... I am leery of firms that sell there own Mutual Funds only. It is in there own best interst to sell these funds and not that of the customer. I like a more independant view of all the funds that are available. jmho. |

I once had a letter published by the Free Press in the sports section. It was from 1964 and I questioned the rational of trading Rocky Colavito for Jerry Lumpe. I had a copy of the newspaper page laminated and it is hanging in my basement.

If the firm happens to own a fund company and wants to offer that as an option, fine. But I have a real problem with any firm that tells brokers what to sell. I view it as a large conflict of interest. |
