The Financial Advocacy Podcast
Podcast Description
Host David Kinder, RFC®, ChFC®, CLU® and co-hosts Michael Moffat and Curt Gibbs believe that the system is broken when it comes to traditional advice. We believe that traditional advice benefits the U.S. Government, Wall Street, and banks FAR more than the plan participants. Join us for many discussions to learn what we can come to know.
