Wednesday is all about personal finance here at Abnormal Returns. You can check out last week’s links including a look at the value of customized client statements.
Quote of the Day
"If you’re a professional money manager, go spend your time on value added activities like estate planning, insurance, tax harvesting, prospecting, general time with your clients or family, or even golf.
If you’re a retail investor, go do anything that makes you happy.
Either way, stop reading my blog and go live your life."
