Don’t underestimate Tony Robbins. He is a proven winner. His insights into the wealth management industry are damning and should be adopted by independent advisors as they compete against Wall Street.

My only concern is that Tony and Elliott fall into the conflicted solution of the leading “coaches” in the RIA business.

Hope to finish Ton’s book over the break.
