Hello All,
Here's a little about myself. I've been a lurker on this board for years, but have posted only a few times under another username. I decided that username didn't give me enough privacy, so I switched to this new one.
I have been a Financial Advisor with Edward Jones between 15 and 20 years. I love reading discussions comparing the pros and cons of the different firms as well as the different ways to do business in this industry (series 7, RIA....) I manage between 200 and 300 million in assets and have been a level 10 producer for several years.

Nice practice,  did you build 200m+ yourself or did you inherit any assets?

Hey John, welcome. Since you’re new and missed all my polls, how tall are you? What % of your T12 is from fee based business? Do you think songs can be sexy?

Trailing 12 recurring is around 90 to 95%. This includes fee based, but also 12b-1 fees

I got around $60 mil in asset sharing programs. I don’t want to give any more details than that other than to say it wasn’t all at the beginning.
