I think it's safe to say you've have peaked my interest.

We have been burned before by fake accounts that get us riled up so while I'm a bit weary about getting my hopes up, the story you tell is an interesting one, so I hope you stick around.
 
I like those numbers you posted above because that means you'll probably provide some goo insights for smaller guys like me (usually the newer guys post more often).
 
I wish the bigger AUM guys on the board posted more often. I tend to learn a lot when they do, but since most have it pretty figured out they tend to just comment.
 
 
Basically what I'm saying is....I hope this is legit.

Fidelity appears to have all I’d require. I’ll call my RM next week.
Again, thank you. I may read the threads a little longer if you don’t mind inactivity.


You have a very good grasp of what this board is like already.  Impressive.  Can you elaborate on the bold part?  What were you reading?  Threads on this board or outside of AH?

David Mullen’s book “The Million Dollar Financial Advisor” has a chapter dedicated to an advisor who rewrote his entire business plan after he stalled. A friend at another firm gave it to me last week, and it was she who suggested I see what may be found on this forum.

How often did your friend post here? There have been a couple of women that were good posters here and I was wondering which of them it might have been.

Glad to have you on board here at the forum!!

I have no idea whether or not she is active here, only that I was referred. She mentioned this page by name and that other advisors here may be willing to offer feedback.

Umm...yeah.  I keep reading his/her posts because I find them to be entertaining.  I still can't figure out if they're serious or not.  I believe they are.  Nobody spends that much time on a forum like this making up stuff like that. 
 
It makes it more fun when you read his posts using a voice like Boris Karloff's. It was either Karloff or Lucius Malfoy from the Harry Potter movies.  It was a bit of a dilemma, but I settled for that classic voice that always creeped me out when I was a kid.

A woman who kicked ass and took no names - 8 years into my career and was in the top 1% of advisors. I was a rockstar who liked to drink and didn't need no man. And then.. It was revealed that I was a sham. I wasn't Scooby.

But the question still remains.. Was I ever an advisor?

My usual handle has my name. Sinister Sister was the name friends and I in prep school gave to our band at the time. We lasted a summer.

You are definitely very engaged since joining--usually answering direct questions in minutes.

So you delegate most of the work in your practice?

There are several former, maybe current, forum members who have been incredibly entertaining.  For various reasons. 
 
The common retort around here when something written appears to be complete nonsense is to recall those now possibly departed former member's screen names with fondness. 
 
Thus the "I miss Scooby."  Other times it's "I miss Ilya."  It is never, under any circumstances to be "I miss Icecold."

I feel like I walked into a room with new people, and every eye is suspicious, like I’m being accused of something after waving hello.
