I’m in the same boat asset wise. At wirehouse and looking at all options. Leaning towards RayJay with LPL a close second

I’m happy at RJ, picked them over Lpl. Avg FA at RJ vs avg at Lpl is much closer to your current numbers

Most people don’t think about MassMutual in the investment space but we have a very robust open arch platform.

That’s a great list to start with but a common mistake. There are a lot of advantages to smaller independents in flexibility, comp control and most importantly connectivity. Remember your running a business as who supports you and their accessibility is key. Happy to help

If you cannot execute on producing good quality work, don't take on a new task/role. You will exhaust yourself, and your work effort will reflect badly on the stakeholders. They will also communicate to others accordingly.

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
