Let a Certified Fraud Examiner & Former Financial Regulator
protect your money and best interests:
know your advisor
Will your financial advisor work in your best interest? What products is he incentivized to sell? Is he/she really a fiduciary or not?

Choose wisely. It's your future.

Former NFL All-Pro and NFL Man of the Year, Nnamdi Asomugha:
"I majored in finance at the University of California at Berkeley, but even that didn’t prepare me for protecting my money as a professional athlete. For athletes, it’s extremely tough to trust people with your finances. It’s so easy to be victimized. It’s crazy. It’s happened to me as an NFL player, to be honest. I think it’s happened to 99% of players in the league.”
