OBJECTIVITY
95% of retirement income experts operate under significant conflicts of interest.
Insurance and annuity salespeople earn massive commissions which often causes them to push people into products inappropriately.
Almost all investment managers earn a percentage of the portfolio they manage, which givens them a strong financial incentive to recommend against retirement income strategies like annuities, life insurance and deferring Social Security.
In stark contrast to all these commission & percentage advisors, Bradley charges all his clients a fixed flat fee, which eliminates troubling conflicts of interest, and ensures that his retirement income advice is objective.
