In this special episode recorded live at The College’s Horizons 2025 conference, Professor of Practice Steve Parrish, JD, RICP®, CLU®, ChFC®, AEP® speaks with author David McKnight about the ubiquitous nature of financial planning “gurus” in the media today and how their advice, while it may give your clients comfort, may not always be in their best interest. They talk about how to differentiate sound advice from sound bites, and why financial professionals should keep open dialogues with clients about things they hear and what’s backed up by the facts.
