Mister RIA
I hope my fellow advisors are noticing that Schwab is out and out competing with our businesses quite formally. By the end of the year I will have moved all of my client assets out of this firm. We’re being boiled alive as Schwab slowly turns up the heat folks. Don’t do business with them.
