Allan Slider, founder of FeeOnlyNetwork.com and a good friend of the Institute is interviewed by Kevin Price, Host of the Price of Business Show.

"With the advent of 401(k)s and the decimation of pension plans to ensure financial security in old age, a fiduciary standard is more important than ever. The public needs to be confidant that advisors helping them plan for their retirement years always and only act in their best interest as a fiduciary. I'm happy to endorse organizations such as the Institute for the Fiduciary Standard that promote protections for those who need to secure their financial future."
