Rewiring Clients For Retirement With Professor Jamie Hopkins
Professor Jamie Hopkins joins me for this episode to discuss how financial advisors can build a model to help clients 'rewire' the way they think about and manage retirement income. We discuss retirement income literacy and the implications for financial advisors. His new book, Rewirement: Rewiring The Way You Think About Retirement!, recently hit the bookshelves.
Interesting Note: Clients without advisors are MORE literate about retirement income than those with financial advisors. Why?
We also discuss the RICP® designation and process for obtaining it. Jamie helped create this program so he is able to provide a deep view into the designation.
Interesting Note: Last year the RICP® had more registrations than the CLU. 11,000 advisors are enrolled today!
