I really like your concept of the Life-First Adviser, David - much more valuable for clients than merely focusing in investment.

Agree with Josef! Would be a great topic as www.agingfinance.com? inaugural annual conference (24-25 Sep 2020 - Singapore) !

David, I enjoyed reading your article. Per usual you are spot on. We are seeing this shift in US and Canada advice practice as well. Although never as fast or as completely as one would hope. I agree with you that those who make this shift you spell out will have a more secure and rewarding practice. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience.
