COMPENSATION & MOTIVATION
“FEE BASED”
1. A disclosed “bargain” fee for a “financial plan”, and/or a percentage of assets managed;
ANDAND,,
2. Not disclosed product commissions that are several times larger than the disclosed fees.
R.O.I. is NOTNOT compensated on this basis!!!!
FEE RETAINER RELATIONSHIP – 100% Disclosed
THE FEE• Percentage of managed assets• Paid MORE if managed assets grow• Paid LESS if they decline• “Family Managed, Office In The Home” model• Competitive Initial Fee Percentage• Rapidly Declining Fee Schedule
COMPENSATION & MOTIVATION(Continued)
1.25% of first $250,000 of managed assets
1.00% of next $250,000 of managed assets
0.75% of next $250,000 of managed assets
0.50% of next $250,000 of managed assets
0.25% of many assets in excess of $1 mill
For example, a client with a $1,250,000 portfolio would pay, per year:
COMPENSATION & MOTIVATION(Continued)
= $3,125, plus
= $2,500, plus
= $1,875, plus
= $1,250, plus
= $ 625
= $9,375/year, or 0.75% of $1,250,000.
SAMPLE “FEE BASED” ADVISOR• Disclosed “bargain” $500 fee for the “Financial Plan”
ANDAND,,• Not Disclosed 4%-8% Commission ($50,000 to
$100,000!!!!)
• R.O.I. = 5-10 YRs of Continuous Satisfactory Service
COMPENSATION & MOTIVATION(Continued)
THE BIG QUESTION:
After receiving the undisclosed, up front $50k-$100k commission, is the “Fee Based” advisor motivated to care for the client for 5-10 years, or to sell another annuity to someone else and make another huge undisclosed commission?
Who is paying your “advisor” to do what?Who is paying your “advisor” to do what?
Are you paying your“advisor” for what
you want doneyou want done?
OROR
Is someone else usingyour $ to pay your “advisor”
to sellsell theirtheir productsproducts?

POSSIBLE CONFLICT OF INTEREST:
Because R.O.I. is paid ONLY on a percentage of managed assets, a conflict could arise relative to R.O.I.’s advice about a client’s use of or allocation of manageable assets (but see Oath and Values, infra).

RETIREMENT PLANNING3 PRIMARY RETIREMENT PLANNING CONCERNS:1. Outliving Income;2. Retirement Income Does Not Keep Up With Reality;3. Dealing With Life’s Contingencies.
QUESTION: Which is the most important concern?
ANSWER: The one you are currently facing.
SOLUTION: A high likelihood of success for all three concerns. A plan that –
1. Provides reliable income at reduced life style = o.k. to sustain life;
2. Provides comfortable life style & future dependence = unwise;
3. Cannot adjust to the contingencies of real life = dangerous;
4. Provides high likelihood of reliable income, comfortable life style AND can adjust to contingencies of real life = ideal.
R.O.I.’S RETIREMENT PLANNING STRATEGY
First Step: Determine actual projected dollar withdrawals via –
1. Comprehensive Financial Plan; or,
2. Committing to Specific Future dollar withdrawals.
Second Step: Emergency fund; home equity line; 72 hour kit;
Third Step: Short-Term & Long-Term Accounts – administer as
1. Current year withdrawal in client’s possession;
2. Short-Term Account = 3 more years of future withdrawals;
3. Long-Term Account = Beat inflation and taxes;
4. Annual Review;
5. Short-Term & Long-Term Accounts = Liquid/Contingencies.

AND
3. Successfully deals with life contingencies.
