It is refreshing to read about Charles' success.  It is the anti Wall Street CEO positioning as are the target clients with less than $250 million.  Wall Street seems to be pushing these advisors out or encouraging them to partner with larger assets.  We will see whose approach works better long term.  My bet is on Charles!

The first time I saw Charles Goldman, I was new at Schwab and he was presenting at the company’s annual sales offsight. I’ll never forget his entrance on the stage with some cool song and he did the robot! He had me there, lol, but then delivered an inspiring speech that only leaders can do. He was always destined for a higher purpose. Hats off, from one Charlie to another! Interestingly, I truly never met a Charlie that I didn’t like!! I can live with that. Cheers

Advocates of using these TAMPs point to how it's better for the advisor because it frees up more time to spend with clients and prospects. It's also better for clients because the duties are being handled by specialized professionals who benefit from economies of scale.

Skeptics say that it adds a layer of cost and takes away an element of control from the advisors in executing according to a client's financial plan.
