Today's Advice Model

The Next Level....

Behind every investment portfolio is a Human Being......

Therin lies the purpose (the first Law of the Matrix - Unity of Purpose) - And the Role and Responsibility of MAIN Street in Our Model-

The Role of Financial Planning is often misunderstood by both clients and the profession itself,
nor is it limited to the retail or unsophisticated investor. The Story of the Harvard endowment fund provides an excellent example....

The First Step -  Clearly Defined Roles and Responsibilities....


Traditionally, Financial planning and investment management are provided as two distinct and separate services. With financial planning, advisors help clients assess their financial situations and set goals. With Investment management, advisors help clients set an investment strategy and choose specific, suitable investment products for a client's portfolio. Of course the investment strategy must be responsive to the client's goals, and the goals can't be set in isolation from the investment strategy.

Without the right tools, advisors aren't able to effectively combine their financial planning and investment management services in an efficient way that reflects the personal situation of every client. The result is often a disjointed advice process that may increase risks for investors and may fail to help them reach their financial goals, such as a secure retirement or funding their childrens college education.

PERSONALIZATION MATTERS

Often the effectiveness of investment advice isn't determined for years, perhaps for decades. Accordingly active methodologies cannot be compared on the basis of recommendations. Instead, one must look to the breath and depth of analysis behind the advice to decide which recommendation is more credible. How can an advisor illustrate to an investor depth of analysis? While there is no foolproof measuring stick, the advice that is more personalized - incorporates and is reflective of more household information - is often better. Consider these common limitations of the traditional investment advice model.

* Investment selection considered in isolation from other resources, such as real estate holdings, current       income, social security, etc

* Investment risk determined from a risk tolerance questionaire, or from an age- determined time horizon, not from an analysis of the house hold financial picture.

* Performance defined as a return against a benchmark, independent of progress against goals.

Risk capacity driving investment recommendations:
The household balance sheet can be a far more personal driver of advice, more so than age, time horizon, or a psychological assessment of risk . We use a comparison of a client's financial resources versus goals and liabilities to determine a household's capacity to bear risk as the basis for investment risk.

Tax Managed at the household level
Tax driven asset location accross accounts will help your advice stand apart from the single account tax management approach so prevalent today in separately managed account or unified managed account structures. Clients have multiple accounts with different tax structures that need advice to be coordinated - ignoring all but one account may result in inefficient advice at best, inapppropiately risky advice at worst.

LEFT BRAIN _ RIGHT BRAIN

Business is Another Realm(wKnowledge-YourBusines) and Investing is another Realm because it often requires Knowledge outside your Realm.

1- Personal - Now you made it personal
2- Business - it's not personal - it's just business
3- Not Your Business - The Other Realm - Stupidity - A realm and domain you know little about

Financial Planning Has Never Evolved into a Legitimate Profession because it has no domain unique to itself.

It Must Define a role and Claim a domain to be Taken Seriously as a profession....

What is MAIN Street Finance - ( - Stationary - Micro Finance?)

It's like hitting a golf ball vs a baseball

It you can first hit the ball off a tee - it's not likely you will be successful hitting the Cutter!

MAIN Street - What it is....What it is Not.....

Main Street is about your World- the World you Live in - the World You aspire to - and the World of Personal (stationary) Finance. Main Street is about maximizing your Cash Flow and protecting your assets. It's about structure and planning.It's about taxes, insurance and narrow banking, setting up a retirement and estate plan. Getting the kids in and out of college, going out to dinner on vacation to the movies, the Opera or the Game. It's about birthdays and holidays. It's about Living in the Moment and Planning for the Future and getting the most out of Life. It's role is not to manage your Capital, that is the Domain of another Realm. This will become more clear as you go forward. That requires a different mindset and toolbox and uses a different "operating System" Trying to Apply the Newtonian Cosmology to commoditize this task is misguided, naive and dangerous and usually produces nothing more than muddy water, migraine headaches and/or financial mishap. It requires applying the knowledge, math, science, and laws that define and are unique to that World. Think about going to a hospital and the radiologist on the second floor and the cardiologist on the forth are the same guy? These are different domain of the MultiVerse.

This Distinction and Duality is the Foundation of Our Approach and ripples through everything we do, including the way we think and the advice we give.

What's the Difference between a financial plan and an AM/FP

An AlphaMatrix FinancialPlan Is Modular and Built to Evolve.  see broken Plans

It's No secret The Industry has made some bone head moves

It now needs to re-evolve - the Universal Banking Model Set you back 20 years.

By the time they turn it around so it can incorporate reality you we will all be dead and buried.

There no longer any illusion that convential models have an interest in you.

The Purpose of Main Street is Simple - Understand and Define the Purpose

Let me Tell u A story

Investing is more ls more like poker than solitare

Strategy  involves what the other participants in the game are doing.

The Idea is simple - Expand your World

The Conventional Model is still about framing your World and selling you theirs (what can make them Money)

The New market requires a different approach -  understand your world - and help you create it......Move to the Buy side of the street....and seek out the products, services and expertise that are needed to build it. if that where you re going this is all you need.. Like a good mechanic - a little common sense - Part of our service is to incorporate Common sense.
