Why do people try to take credit for regular phrases?
Someone just said “I call it fluff”
Oh really, YOU call it that.
Why do people pull the “I call it …” card?!

I call it a fluffernutter

“I call it…” is another way of assigning a word or phrase to describe something, not to take credit for it.

“I call BS” is another example

. . . relax

You thinking too deep into it, no one is taking credit for those phrases.

I need some advice from advisors who have brought other “Junior” Advisors on. What is a fair split? Currently I have passed on my smaller clients to them, as well as providing consistent leads for them to call and meet with. The individual is working to build their own book of business, but up to now doesn’t have much production. They have only been in the business for about 2 years. I also provide an office and everything that comes with that, and admin assistance. Thanks in advance!

I think living a frugal life and aiming to retire early makes a lot of sense.

Recently, some of my family members are diagnosed with a rare diseases. When you look at the statistics, these are so many of these ‘rare’ conditions and cumulatively they are not rare.

These family members conditions made me reevaluate how I want to spend my life. I am 35 this year and I can’t decide if I should take great vacations with my kids or keep living a frugal life. Do you have the same dilemma?
