00:05:58,916 –> 00:06:00,266
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

203
00:05:59,309 –> 00:05:59,429

00:06:07,142 –> 00:06:12,912
[michelle_richter]: those of either the iris or any
of its member companies okay but so in

209
00:06:12,932 –> 00:06:17,459
[michelle_richter]: this position i hear a lot about
what going on in space and and i

210
00:06:17,680 –> 00:06:22,287
[michelle_richter]: also facilitate consortion of retirement

215
00:06:31,062 –> 00:06:36,551
[michelle_richter]: lot of what’s going on behind the
scenes as the industry really prepares for what

216
00:06:37,092 –> 00:06:45,706
[michelle_richter]: is expected to be massive movement towards
annuities and plan some of the attributes that

217
00:06:45,786 –> 00:06:52,478
[michelle_richter]: i see as necessary right now for
this field to take off include um annuities

218
00:06:52,618 –> 00:06:59,069
[michelle_richter]: need to be included within what in
the qualify or in the d c d

219
00:06:59,189 –> 00:07:01,813
[michelle_richter]: c being defined contribution by the way
space

220
00:07:02,216 –> 00:07:02,297
[paul_tyler]: ah

221
00:07:02,995 –> 00:07:10,427
[michelle_richter]: you know we we need for annuities
to be incorporated into qualified default investment alternatives

222
00:07:10,908 –> 00:07:14,354
[michelle_richter]: for them with offdout provisions of course
for them to

223
00:07:14,405 –> 00:07:14,426
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

224
00:07:14,434 –> 00:07:16,542
[michelle_richter]: have real main stream success

225
00:07:17,735 –> 00:07:17,756
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

226
00:07:17,946 –> 00:07:21,792
[michelle_richter]: we need data for mat standardization

227
00:07:20,666 –> 00:07:20,686
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

228
00:07:22,113 –> 00:07:23,475
[michelle_richter]: to be undertaken

229
00:07:23,165 –> 00:07:24,206
[ramsey_d_smith]: m oh

230
00:07:24,116 –> 00:07:25,198
[michelle_richter]: by an industry

231
00:07:25,218 –> 00:07:25,519
[bruno_caron]: oh

232
00:07:25,398 –> 00:07:27,021
[michelle_richter]: organization like

233
00:07:26,947 –> 00:07:27,108
[bruno_caron]: yeah

234
00:07:27,201 –> 00:07:34,794
[michelle_richter]: spark for example it is the industry
organization for record keepers and it is in

235
00:07:34,914 –> 00:07:36,757
[michelle_richter]: conversation with libra

236
00:07:37,810 –> 00:07:37,954
[bruno_caron]: yeah

237
00:07:38,039 –> 00:07:38,420
[michelle_richter]: about

238
00:07:38,186 –> 00:07:38,307
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

239
00:07:38,700 –> 00:07:45,852
[michelle_richter]: how to accomplish some of those jectives
where because historically you know record keepers didn’t

240
00:07:45,972 –> 00:07:50,740
[michelle_richter]: talk to annuity companies and annuity companies
didn’t talk to record keepers so

241
00:07:50,696 –> 00:07:52,346
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

242
00:07:50,861 –> 00:07:59,735
[michelle_richter]: that to the data connactivitythat is necessary
for reporting annuity elements it benefit elements to

243
00:07:59,876 –> 00:08:03,061
[michelle_richter]: the end participant like that infrastructure

244
00:08:02,816 –> 00:08:03,565
[ramsey_d_smith]: yes

245
00:08:03,261 –> 00:08:10,273
[michelle_richter]: isn’t there yet so some of that
is needs to be addressed for there to

246
00:08:10,333 –> 00:08:14,139
[michelle_richter]: be a wide scale and then lastly
fiduciary

247
00:08:13,496 –> 00:08:13,844
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

248
00:08:14,240 –> 00:08:20,811
[michelle_richter]: concerns need to be satisfied because plan
sponsors and those who advise them serve in

249
00:08:20,851 –> 00:08:29,004
[michelle_richter]: a fiduciary capacity and the concerns that
i’m hearing about how advisors can introduce annuities

250
00:08:29,325 –> 00:08:30,607
[michelle_richter]: plan are

251
00:08:30,695 –> 00:08:30,716
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

252
00:08:31,328 –> 00:08:39,782
[michelle_richter]: more materially about ongoing monitoring than they
are about initial introduction where there’s there is

253
00:08:39,882 –> 00:08:49,498
[michelle_richter]: certainly a need within the plan advisory
community to get access to basic information about

254
00:08:49,819 –> 00:08:56,227
[michelle_richter]: about products but our product our industries
products but but i am hearing as i

255
00:08:56,287 –> 00:09:00,611
[michelle_richter]: said less concerned about how to get
enough information to be able to make an

256
00:09:00,671 –> 00:09:00,991
[michelle_richter]: initial

257
00:09:00,678 –> 00:09:01,668
[bruno_caron]: yeah

258
00:09:00,866 –> 00:09:01,070
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

259
00:09:01,051 –> 00:09:02,653
[michelle_richter]: recommendation than i

260
00:09:02,756 –> 00:09:03,716
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

261
00:09:02,873 –> 00:09:06,778
[michelle_richter]: am about things like how will i
know what renewal

262
00:09:06,746 –> 00:09:06,987
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

263
00:09:06,898 –> 00:09:08,661
[michelle_richter]: rates on indexinuities

264
00:09:08,546 –> 00:09:08,849
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

265
00:09:08,861 –> 00:09:14,611
[michelle_richter]: actually turn out to be since i’m
making this recommendation that needs to be monitored

266
00:09:14,671 –> 00:09:19,931
[michelle_richter]: on an ongoing basis so this the
kind of information that’s going to be necessary

267
00:09:20,665 –> 00:09:27,516
[michelle_richter]: within the plan advisory community for our
product lines to take off and it’s looking

268
00:09:27,616 –> 00:09:29,539
[michelle_richter]: to me like that’s going to be
the case

269
00:09:29,868 –> 00:09:29,888
[bruno_caron]: m

270
00:09:30,181 –> 00:09:37,460
[michelle_richter]: so we should all prepare accordingly um
i’d like to let mark pitch you on

271
00:09:37,540 –> 00:09:38,101
[michelle_richter]: why we should

272
00:09:38,126 –> 00:09:38,146
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

273
00:09:38,161 –> 00:09:39,363
[michelle_richter]: all prepare accordingly

274
00:09:39,146 –> 00:09:40,406
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

275
00:09:39,543 –> 00:09:44,772
[michelle_richter]: because you know my view is that
you know as it stands right now and

276
00:09:45,192 –> 00:09:46,955
[michelle_richter]: i’ll go deeper on this a couple
of

277
00:09:46,946 –> 00:09:46,966
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

278
00:09:46,995 –> 00:09:52,384
[michelle_richter]: minutes but you know as the community
stands right now amongst

279
00:09:52,608 –> 00:09:52,871
[bruno_caron]: oh

280
00:09:52,625 –> 00:09:58,935
[michelle_richter]: plan advisors as i mentioned plan advisors
they advise plans d c plans

281
00:09:59,036 –> 00:09:59,197
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

282
00:09:59,095 –> 00:10:02,838
[michelle_richter]: are inherently accumulation focused it’s never been
the

283
00:10:02,795 –> 00:10:02,816
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

284
00:10:02,919 –> 00:10:11,668
[michelle_richter]: responsibility of a plan advisor to understand
decumulation because historically plant sponsors did not want

285
00:10:11,768 –> 00:10:12,409
[michelle_richter]: to retain

286
00:10:12,296 –> 00:10:13,466
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

287
00:10:12,650 –> 00:10:19,862
[michelle_richter]: assets through participants retirement but that dynamic
has changed dramatically in the last five to

288
00:10:19,922 –> 00:10:25,251
[michelle_richter]: ten years and it’s it in large
part of function of record keeping fee structures

289
00:10:26,413 –> 00:10:31,962
[michelle_richter]: and there being economies of scale to
keeping participants in plan but it also has

290
00:10:32,042 –> 00:10:37,511
[michelle_richter]: to do with some regulatority since um
and it just is the case now that

291
00:10:37,631 –> 00:10:41,939
[michelle_richter]: plan advisors need to become more expert
and how to address the

292
00:10:41,908 –> 00:10:42,031
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

293
00:10:41,979 –> 00:10:46,049
[michelle_richter]: decumulation phase so this whole um

294
00:10:46,246 –> 00:10:46,706
[ramsey_d_smith]: michele i’ve

295
00:10:46,734 –> 00:10:46,754
[michelle_richter]: m

296
00:10:46,746 –> 00:10:47,207
[ramsey_d_smith]: got a i’ve

297
00:10:47,237 –> 00:10:47,742
[michelle_richter]: community

298
00:10:47,247 –> 00:10:48,369
[ramsey_d_smith]: got i’ve got a quick

299
00:10:48,288 –> 00:10:48,449
[michelle_richter]: yeah

300
00:10:48,429 –> 00:10:48,730
[ramsey_d_smith]: question

[bruno_caron]: a

302
00:10:48,790 –> 00:10:49,170
[ramsey_d_smith]: if if

333
00:11:29,260 –> 00:11:29,701
[michelle_richter]: typically

334
00:11:29,726 –> 00:11:29,746
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

335
00:11:29,821 –> 00:11:31,764
[michelle_richter]: larger plans work with a

00:11:32,006 –> 00:11:32,308
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

[michelle_richter]: sultan that has

338
00:11:33,154 –> 00:11:33,296
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

339
00:11:33,487 –> 00:11:33,687
[michelle_richter]: home

340
00:11:33,626 –> 00:11:33,909
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

341
00:11:33,808 –> 00:11:37,975
[michelle_richter]: office support working for an organization

342
00:11:37,899 –> 00:11:37,919
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

343
00:11:38,135 –> 00:11:41,320
[michelle_richter]: that is principally focused on plan advisement

344
00:11:42,005 –> 00:11:42,026
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

345
00:11:42,482 –> 00:11:47,010
[michelle_richter]: whereas retirement and advisors so so you’d
call those people consultants

346
00:11:47,360 –> 00:11:47,381
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

347
00:11:47,651 –> 00:11:48,292
[michelle_richter]: whereas you’d

348
00:11:48,215 –> 00:11:48,236
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

349
00:11:48,372 –> 00:11:48,572
[michelle_richter]: call

350
00:11:48,498 –> 00:11:48,740
[bruno_caron]: oh

351
00:11:48,692 –> 00:11:55,404
[michelle_richter]: an advisor a person who probably works
with a smaller shop and may be on

352
00:11:55,464 –> 00:11:59,877
[michelle_richter]: their own um and that always is
performed

353
00:11:59,450 –> 00:11:59,906
[ramsey_d_smith]: right

354
00:11:59,977 –> 00:12:01,683
[michelle_richter]: through a registered investment advisor

355
00:12:02,327 –> 00:12:03,090
[ramsey_d_smith]: and what would be the

356
00:12:03,026 –> 00:12:05,253
[michelle_richter]: but but they’re not per se wealth
managers

357
00:12:05,236 –> 00:12:09,741
[ramsey_d_smith]: sure and what and what sort of
size of what size of plans would they

358
00:12:09,801 –> 00:12:10,302
[ramsey_d_smith]: be typically

359
00:12:11,475 –> 00:12:11,717
[michelle_richter]: yeah

360
00:12:12,044 –> 00:12:12,545
[ramsey_d_smith]: advising

361
00:12:12,323 –> 00:12:12,444
[michelle_richter]: yeah

362
00:12:13,596 –> 00:12:13,963
[ramsey_d_smith]: a park

363
00:12:14,207 –> 00:12:18,414
[michelle_richter]: so the consultants might be looking in
the billion dollar range

364
00:12:18,299 –> 00:12:18,319
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

365
00:12:18,447 –> 00:12:18,468
[bruno_caron]: m

366
00:12:18,534 –> 00:12:19,916
[michelle_richter]: right and advisors

367
00:12:19,715 –> 00:12:19,736
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

368
00:12:20,036 –> 00:12:24,884
[michelle_richter]: are you know likely addressing the market
below that i mean that certainly

369
00:12:25,208 –> 00:12:25,432
[ramsey_d_smith]: sure

370
00:12:25,405 –> 00:12:27,009
[michelle_richter]: a hard and fast rule but

371
00:12:27,896 –> 00:12:28,676
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

372
00:12:28,031 –> 00:12:29,233
[michelle_richter]: you know ball park

373
00:12:29,486 –> 00:12:33,453
[ramsey_d_smith]: so so the next next piece is
that i think it’s very interesting following that

374
00:12:33,533 –> 00:12:38,581
[ramsey_d_smith]: is the the it’s it’s it’s an
important business for a lot of r s

375
00:12:39,443 –> 00:12:43,661
[ramsey_d_smith]: and what you’re saying is that where
before it might have been a business that

376
00:12:43,721 –> 00:12:50,676
[ramsey_d_smith]: was that was limited to sort of
the accumulation phase now there’s this retention opportunity

377
00:12:51,237 –> 00:12:55,524
[ramsey_d_smith]: all the way into retirement it’s an
important business opportunity as well for that for

378
00:12:55,544 –> 00:12:57,111
[ramsey_d_smith]: that aeneisthatis that fair statement

379
00:12:58,806 –> 00:13:03,434
[michelle_richter]: it is a fair statement and it
is half of the reason why i’m here

380
00:13:03,514 –> 00:13:04,796
[michelle_richter]: today it’s because

381
00:13:04,458 –> 00:13:04,659
[ramsey_d_smith]: okay

382
00:13:04,876 –> 00:13:06,599
[michelle_richter]: i believe that my people

383
00:13:06,326 –> 00:13:06,748
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

384
00:13:06,759 –> 00:13:08,642
[michelle_richter]: have a place within this community

385
00:13:08,817 –> 00:13:08,919
[ramsey_d_smith]: eh

386
00:13:09,664 –> 00:13:10,906
[michelle_richter]: it the case that

387
00:13:10,840 –> 00:13:10,860
[bruno_caron]: i

388
00:13:11,627 –> 00:13:15,013
[michelle_richter]: retirement plan advisors don’t know annuities right

389
00:13:15,116 –> 00:13:15,357
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

390
00:13:15,193 –> 00:13:21,864
[michelle_richter]: with everybody certainly knows that that’s the
case and arica does require for experts

391
00:13:21,858 –> 00:13:22,616
[bruno_caron]: ye

392
00:13:22,045 –> 00:13:27,834
[michelle_richter]: who are advising a plan if they
do not have experts in a certain arena

393
00:13:27,914 –> 00:13:33,644
[michelle_richter]: that they think is important for the
plan then an every side adviser is required

394
00:13:33,744 –> 00:13:34,726
[michelle_richter]: to contract with

395
00:13:34,766 –> 00:13:35,199
[ramsey_d_smith]: my

396
00:13:34,786 –> 00:13:42,158
[michelle_richter]: an outside expert to to give them
guidance on how to review those you know

397
00:13:42,198 –> 00:13:50,212
[michelle_richter]: those solutions so you know from my
view i think that there is a need

398
00:13:50,612 –> 00:13:59,748
[michelle_richter]: for insurance experts to get ready to
help plan advisors to evaluate insurance contract that’s

399
00:13:59,828 –> 00:14:04,015
[michelle_richter]: at the heart of what mark and
i will be doing as early as february

400
00:14:03,995 –> 00:14:04,467
[ramsey_d_smith]: m oh

401
00:14:04,776 –> 00:14:06,038
[michelle_richter]: and and i

402
00:14:06,149 –> 00:14:06,169
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

403
00:14:06,178 –> 00:14:08,202
[michelle_richter]: feel that we will not

404
00:14:08,036 –> 00:14:08,278
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

405
00:14:08,302 –> 00:14:11,347
[michelle_richter]: be able to dress all of the
demand

406
00:14:11,246 –> 00:14:11,527
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

407
00:14:11,527 –> 00:14:16,375
[michelle_richter]: ourselves for such services because plan advisors
do not

408
00:14:16,304 –> 00:14:16,645
[paul_tyler]: oh

409
00:14:16,455 –> 00:14:24,611
[michelle_richter]: have that expertise my imagination is that
building models or that kind of expertise will

410
00:14:24,772 –> 00:14:32,178
[michelle_richter]: be hourly or project based or subscription
based and so if that is the case

411
00:14:32,559 –> 00:14:38,248
[michelle_richter]: here cannot be commissions paid in an
aria context so it seems to me

412
00:14:38,156 –> 00:14:38,906
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

413
00:14:38,449 –> 00:14:41,113
[michelle_richter]: that the guidance that is going to
be necessary

414
00:14:40,766 –> 00:14:41,010
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

415
00:14:41,213 –> 00:14:42,375
[michelle_richter]: is going to be livered

416
00:14:42,725 –> 00:14:42,746
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

417
00:14:42,816 –> 00:14:45,220
[michelle_richter]: v one of the mechanisms i just
described

418
00:14:45,515 –> 00:14:45,536
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

419
00:14:45,618 –> 00:14:45,699
[paul_tyler]: ay

420
00:14:45,821 –> 00:14:47,764
[michelle_richter]: and to me it appears that the

421
00:14:47,898 –> 00:14:47,918
[bruno_caron]: m

422
00:14:47,964 –> 00:14:50,388
[michelle_richter]: form of entity qualified to do such

423
00:14:50,273 –> 00:14:50,495
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

424
00:14:50,689 –> 00:14:56,539
[michelle_richter]: is an r a m and that’s
the reason why i have used my for

425
00:14:56,579 –> 00:14:59,604
[michelle_richter]: that purpose and and i

426
00:14:59,876 –> 00:15:00,596
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

427
00:14:59,924 –> 00:15:01,467
[michelle_richter]: think that plan advisers

428
00:15:01,001 –> 00:15:01,084
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah

429
00:15:01,607 –> 00:15:06,896
[michelle_richter]: will desire for the counter party that
they interact with to also b fiduciary

430
00:15:07,195 –> 00:15:07,357
[paul_tyler]: yeah

431
00:15:07,838 –> 00:15:14,449
[michelle_richter]: an annuity fediciary for which i applied
for a trade mark because insurance fiduciary is

432
00:15:14,649 –> 00:15:21,082
[michelle_richter]: already trade marked by one man who
will prevent others from using that mark who

433
00:15:21,262 –> 00:15:25,412
[michelle_richter]: did in fact do so with me
which is the reason why my entity is

434
00:15:25,512 –> 00:15:25,933
[michelle_richter]: renamed

435
00:15:26,399 –> 00:15:26,560
[ramsey_d_smith]: other

436
00:15:26,588 –> 00:15:26,772
[paul_tyler]: work

437
00:15:26,620 –> 00:15:28,871
[ramsey_d_smith]: than owning the name does he actually
perform that function

438
00:15:31,406 –> 00:15:32,490
[michelle_richter]: i decline to comment

439
00:15:32,286 –> 00:15:32,506
[ramsey_d_smith]: okay

440
00:15:32,590 –> 00:15:33,293
[michelle_richter]: on the individual

441
00:15:33,749 –> 00:15:33,949
[ramsey_d_smith]: i just

442
00:15:34,067 –> 00:15:34,288
[paul_tyler]: okay

443
00:15:34,350 –> 00:15:34,451
[ramsey_d_smith]: just

444
00:15:34,749 –> 00:15:35,732
[paul_tyler]: well and let me

445
00:15:35,693 –> 00:15:35,753
[ramsey_d_smith]: go

446
00:15:35,773 –> 00:15:35,913
[paul_tyler]: just

447
00:15:35,814 –> 00:15:35,974
[ramsey_d_smith]: ahead

448
00:15:36,475 –> 00:15:38,381
[paul_tyler]: be even a little more specific for
a listener so

449
00:15:38,605 –> 00:15:42,652
[michelle_richter]: i hold a patent my former employer
holds a patent

450
00:15:42,473 –> 00:15:42,715
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

451
00:15:42,792 –> 00:15:44,135
[michelle_richter]: on intellectual property

452
00:15:44,186 –> 00:15:44,206
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

453
00:15:44,275 –> 00:15:51,908
[michelle_richter]: that i invented imbedding life insurance and
annuities into holistic acid application to challenge mark

454
00:15:52,629 –> 00:15:54,592
[michelle_richter]: who said that it can be done

455
00:15:54,657 –> 00:15:54,678
[bruno_caron]: m

456
00:15:54,732 –> 00:15:55,614
[michelle_richter]: it can be done

457
00:15:55,526 –> 00:15:55,546
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

458
00:15:56,075 –> 00:16:01,704
[michelle_richter]: it was done and yet i cannot
call myself an insurance fiduciary i can call

459
00:16:01,804 –> 00:16:02,568
[michelle_richter]: myself an annuity

460
00:16:02,594 –> 00:16:03,002
[paul_tyler]: uh

461
00:16:02,628 –> 00:16:03,131
[michelle_richter]: fiduciary

462
00:16:04,174 –> 00:16:10,845
[paul_tyler]: well and i’ll say for my experience
providing financial planning

463
00:16:10,826 –> 00:16:11,007
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

464
00:16:10,986 –> 00:16:14,932
[paul_tyler]: support inside of corporate structure is immensely
complicated only from

465
00:16:14,876 –> 00:16:14,896
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

466
00:16:14,972 –> 00:16:17,657
[paul_tyler]: a legal perspect but a practical perspective

467
00:16:17,195 –> 00:16:17,216
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

468
00:16:17,737 –> 00:16:18,558
[paul_tyler]: of working with a

469
00:16:18,623 –> 00:16:18,643
[mark_chamberlain]: m

470
00:16:18,638 –> 00:16:23,406
[paul_tyler]: wide variety of employes so when you
talk about a plan advisor or an annuity

471
00:16:23,526 –> 00:16:30,658
[paul_tyler]: specialist is the client the and sponsor
or is the client the individuals and the

472
00:16:30,698 –> 00:16:33,242
[paul_tyler]: corporation or individuals inside the plan

473
00:16:35,228 –> 00:16:41,754
[michelle_richter]: i it’s a great question i would
argue there’s three clients there is the plan

474
00:16:41,814 –> 00:16:44,619
[michelle_richter]: advisor who makes the determination

475
00:16:44,036 –> 00:16:44,379
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

476
00:16:44,719 –> 00:16:46,843
[michelle_richter]: of how to select other service providers

477
00:16:46,406 –> 00:16:46,710
[ramsey_d_smith]: my

478
00:16:47,764 –> 00:16:53,996
[michelle_richter]: there the plan itself and there are
the participants in the plan and the person

479
00:16:54,076 –> 00:16:58,404
[michelle_richter]: who’s giving the guidance has to be
thinking about all of those constituencies

480
00:17:00,266 –> 00:17:01,376
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

481
00:17:00,914 –> 00:17:05,402
[paul_tyler]: i guess is that is that like
is that possible right i think of the

482
00:17:06,023 –> 00:17:11,111
[paul_tyler]: thou think of the challenge s just

00:17:25,461 –> 00:17:25,782
[paul_tyler]: that one

498
00:17:26,298 –> 00:17:26,765
[bruno_caron]: uh

499
00:17:26,885 –> 00:17:26,906
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

500
00:17:27,384 –> 00:17:27,685
[paul_tyler]: perfect

501
00:17:27,537 –> 00:17:27,558
[bruno_caron]: h

502
00:17:27,785 –> 00:17:28,065
[paul_tyler]: world

503
00:17:28,076 –> 00:17:29,246
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

504
00:17:28,787 –> 00:17:30,249
[paul_tyler]: what is that number like

505
00:17:30,678 –> 00:17:31,398
[bruno_caron]: yeah

506
00:17:30,730 –> 00:17:31,531
[paul_tyler]: does everybody have

507
00:17:31,673 –> 00:17:31,693
[mark_chamberlain]: m

508
00:17:32,235 –> 00:17:32,457
[michelle_richter]: oh

509
00:17:32,513 –> 00:17:34,276
[paul_tyler]: five percent their assets between thirty

510
00:17:34,233 –> 00:17:34,395
[michelle_richter]: yeah

511
00:17:34,316 –> 00:17:37,661
[paul_tyler]: and forty in this annuity is that
then you get to fifty and sixty you’ve

512
00:17:37,681 –> 00:17:38,022
[paul_tyler]: got ten

513
00:17:38,696 –> 00:17:39,566
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

514
00:17:39,174 –> 00:17:39,595
[paul_tyler]: what’s your

515
00:17:40,095 –> 00:17:40,438
[michelle_richter]: oh

516
00:17:40,377 –> 00:17:40,538
[paul_tyler]: if you

517
00:17:40,466 –> 00:17:40,667
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

518
00:17:40,558 –> 00:17:41,280
[paul_tyler]: were righting a lot what

519
00:17:41,185 –> 00:17:41,287
[michelle_richter]: the

520
00:17:41,320 –> 00:17:41,460
[paul_tyler]: would

521
00:17:41,449 –> 00:17:41,753
[michelle_richter]: answer

522
00:17:41,500 –> 00:17:41,701
[paul_tyler]: it be

523
00:17:43,726 –> 00:17:44,787
[michelle_richter]: well i’m actually going to

524
00:17:44,808 –> 00:17:45,072
[bruno_caron]: yeah

525
00:17:44,847 –> 00:17:48,373
[michelle_richter]: have mark answer this because our organization
takes

526
00:17:48,533 –> 00:17:48,901
[mark_chamberlain]: my

527
00:17:48,554 –> 00:17:53,261
[michelle_richter]: a view point around how the stages
that we think you’re supposed to look at

528
00:17:53,742 –> 00:17:55,525
[michelle_richter]: as a plan advisor then

529
00:17:55,886 –> 00:17:56,208
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

530
00:17:56,327 –> 00:18:02,270
[michelle_richter]: it’s through that lens that you’re supposed
to then think about products all you mark

531
00:18:04,343 –> 00:18:07,807
[mark_chamberlain]: we didn’t see that one coming but
i’ll give

532
00:18:07,695 –> 00:18:07,957
[michelle_richter]: uh

533
00:18:07,867 –> 00:18:08,227
[mark_chamberlain]: it a shot

534
00:18:08,298 –> 00:18:08,579
[bruno_caron]: my

535
00:18:08,644 –> 00:18:08,685
[michelle_richter]: uh

536
00:18:08,945 –> 00:18:08,966
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

537
00:18:09,589 –> 00:18:12,945
[mark_chamberlain]: my perspective on all of this is
that

538
00:18:13,835 –> 00:18:13,856
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

539
00:18:14,913 –> 00:18:22,454
[mark_chamberlain]: open architecture approach to providing institutional quality
diligence and consulting means that

540
00:18:23,366 –> 00:18:23,547
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

541
00:18:23,395 –> 00:18:29,735
[mark_chamberlain]: there is no best solution there are
only trade offs and one of the possible

542
00:18:30,375 –> 00:18:31,497
[mark_chamberlain]: conclusions that a board

543
00:18:31,526 –> 00:18:31,726
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

544
00:18:31,597 –> 00:18:34,620
[mark_chamberlain]: can reach is that bringing an annuity
inside the

545
00:18:34,555 –> 00:18:34,655
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

546
00:18:34,660 –> 00:18:35,361
[mark_chamberlain]: plan isn’t the

547
00:18:35,366 –> 00:18:35,647
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

548
00:18:35,421 –> 00:18:38,919
[mark_chamberlain]: best decision for them it has to
be one of the options on the table

549
00:18:38,996 –> 00:18:39,241
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

550
00:18:39,401 –> 00:18:44,218
[mark_chamberlain]: and the consultant has to be ready
to support that and educated in such a

551
00:18:44,278 –> 00:18:45,645
[mark_chamberlain]: way that that’s that’s actually

552
00:18:45,447 –> 00:18:45,528
[michelle_richter]: ah

553
00:18:45,786 –> 00:18:51,448
[mark_chamberlain]: considered oh in an unbiased way so
that’s a little bit

554
00:18:51,408 –> 00:18:51,428
[bruno_caron]: m

555
00:18:51,488 –> 00:18:57,246
[mark_chamberlain]: of a constraint on who’s going to
be considered the outside expert and that gets

556
00:18:57,326 –> 00:18:59,551
[mark_chamberlain]: to the heart of michel’s point of

557
00:19:00,686 –> 00:19:01,110
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

558
00:19:00,693 –> 00:19:04,201
[mark_chamberlain]: the right way to compensate this kind
of an expert isn’t based on a product

559
00:19:04,301 –> 00:19:08,650
[mark_chamberlain]: sale the only way you’re going to
get truly objectivity is if they’re they’re paid

560
00:19:08,730 –> 00:19:10,514
[mark_chamberlain]: a consulting a hard dollar consulting fee

561
00:19:10,695 –> 00:19:10,916
[michelle_richter]: oh

562
00:19:11,476 –> 00:19:19,699
[mark_chamberlain]: so with that said no is it
optimal to try and say to a plant

563
00:19:19,655 –> 00:19:19,676
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

564
00:19:19,739 –> 00:19:26,971
[mark_chamberlain]: participant you should have ex percent defaulted
into this solution well that gets into the

565
00:19:27,051 –> 00:19:29,785
[mark_chamberlain]: triage what stage is the participant

566
00:19:29,345 –> 00:19:29,366
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

567
00:19:30,007 –> 00:19:34,636
[mark_chamberlain]: in and their financial planning are they
the accumulation

568
00:19:34,556 –> 00:19:34,818
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

569
00:19:34,716 –> 00:19:35,017
[mark_chamberlain]: phase

570
00:19:35,088 –> 00:19:36,198
[bruno_caron]: yeah

571
00:19:35,118 –> 00:19:38,491
[mark_chamberlain]: are they in the near retirement phase
or are they going to retire next year

572
00:19:39,623 –> 00:19:44,651
[mark_chamberlain]: and so that’s probably the first the
first conversation for

573
00:19:44,486 –> 00:19:45,796
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah m

574
00:19:45,893 –> 00:19:49,599
[mark_chamberlain]: the expert to have with the board
is what stage do you want to solve

575
00:19:49,679 –> 00:19:54,633
[mark_chamberlain]: for in your plan you want to
try and put something in place that will

576
00:19:54,733 –> 00:19:59,181
[mark_chamberlain]: fit those who are in the most
urgent need which are those people that are

577
00:19:59,221 –> 00:20:01,965
[mark_chamberlain]: retiring this year next year the year
after

578
00:20:02,636 –> 00:20:03,299
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

579
00:20:02,847 –> 00:20:09,201
[mark_chamberlain]: and so there are they’ve got some
educational needs about how to think about putting

580
00:20:09,261 –> 00:20:14,124
[mark_chamberlain]: together a retirement income plan that can
not only be secure for them in an

581
00:20:14,224 –> 00:20:19,293
[mark_chamberlain]: inflationary environment but in possibly a deflationary
environment also and you have to be able

582
00:20:19,373 –> 00:20:27,210
[mark_chamberlain]: to do some serious education about where
annuities fit relative systematic withdrawal and then you

583
00:20:27,250 –> 00:20:29,559
[mark_chamberlain]: have to be able to do a
deep dive from there on what kind of

584
00:20:29,639 –> 00:20:35,330
[mark_chamberlain]: ininuuity and if we focus on the
only decumulation then we need to do a

585
00:20:35,390 –> 00:20:40,619
[mark_chamberlain]: deep dive on spes versus riders versus
you know the various ways of generating lifetime

586
00:20:40,699 –> 00:20:45,549
[mark_chamberlain]: income so there is no answer to
the question of you know how do we

587
00:20:45,609 –> 00:20:50,921
[mark_chamberlain]: come up with a one size fits
all solution because it’s much too complicated for

588
00:20:50,961 –> 00:20:51,101
[mark_chamberlain]: that

589
00:20:52,189 –> 00:20:56,115
[bruno_caron]: and that makes perfect sense in terms
of trade off i love the way you

590
00:20:56,195 –> 00:21:00,743
[bruno_caron]: put it in terms of you know
there is no right solution there’s no one

591
00:21:01,825 –> 00:21:06,392
[bruno_caron]: one right answer because quite frankly if
there was we wouldn’t be talking about it

592
00:21:06,432 –> 00:21:06,773
[bruno_caron]: right now

593
00:21:07,553 –> 00:21:07,573
[mark_chamberlain]: m

594
00:21:07,554 –> 00:21:14,546
[bruno_caron]: and my question is have you looked
at or found a way to obviously there’s

595
00:21:14,606 –> 00:21:19,073
[bruno_caron]: a classical measure of you know assets
on their management x per cent of your

596
00:21:19,133 –> 00:21:24,462
[bruno_caron]: your portfolio should be you know allocated
one way one way or the other but

597
00:21:24,743 –> 00:21:30,753
[bruno_caron]: is there a way to to do
that exact same reasoning that exactly framework with

598
00:21:30,913 –> 00:21:32,776
[bruno_caron]: income and how much income

599
00:21:33,905 –> 00:21:33,926
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

600
00:21:34,219 –> 00:21:36,582
[bruno_caron]: on you know the set of all
of your

601
00:21:36,935 –> 00:21:36,956
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

602
00:21:36,963 –> 00:21:42,233
[bruno_caron]: your your assets would act or your
portfolio would would generate

603
00:21:44,132 –> 00:21:44,274
[mark_chamberlain]: what

604
00:21:44,295 –> 00:21:47,180
[michelle_richter]: i think there are lots of ways
to do that and it’s always going to

605
00:21:47,220 –> 00:21:49,564
[michelle_richter]: be a question and mark you should
disagree

606
00:21:49,166 –> 00:21:49,467
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

607
00:21:49,624 –> 00:21:54,633
[michelle_richter]: with me if this is not your
opinion but you know mark always tells me

608
00:21:54,833 –> 00:21:57,558
[michelle_richter]: fiduciary is t process right so

609
00:21:57,783 –> 00:21:57,884
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

610
00:21:57,958 –> 00:22:00,002
[michelle_richter]: there’s a million ways that you can

611
00:22:00,128 –> 00:22:00,169
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

612
00:22:00,522 –> 00:22:01,164
[michelle_richter]: do exactly

613
00:22:01,145 –> 00:22:01,166
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

614
00:22:01,204 –> 00:22:01,985
[michelle_richter]: what you’re describing

615
00:22:01,707 –> 00:22:01,728
[bruno_caron]: m

616
00:22:01,917 –> 00:22:01,999
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

617
00:22:02,025 –> 00:22:04,068
[michelle_richter]: brune and as long as when you’re

618
00:22:03,923 –> 00:22:04,105
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

619
00:22:04,128 –> 00:22:05,651
[michelle_richter]: acting in a futiary capacity

620
00:22:05,606 –> 00:22:05,950
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

621
00:22:05,771 –> 00:22:10,242
[michelle_richter]: as long as you document how you
did it and you did it you’re in

622
00:22:10,302 –> 00:22:10,763
[michelle_richter]: good hands

623
00:22:13,285 –> 00:22:17,898
[mark_chamberlain]: i spent the last ten years working
on a think tank project that i started

624
00:22:17,955 –> 00:22:18,178
[michelle_richter]: yeah

625
00:22:17,978 –> 00:22:22,485
[mark_chamberlain]: in two thousand ten and the objective
was to try and get l d to

626
00:22:22,545 –> 00:22:26,585
[mark_chamberlain]: translate to individuals and l d i
not in the way that the u k

627
00:22:26,865 –> 00:22:30,790
[mark_chamberlain]: used leverage to try and come up
with you now meeting a funding obligation

628
00:22:30,920 –> 00:22:31,021
[bruno_caron]: oh

629
00:22:31,226 –> 00:22:31,407
[ramsey_d_smith]: mark

630
00:22:31,891 –> 00:22:31,931
[mark_chamberlain]: l

631
00:22:31,930 –> 00:22:32,010
[ramsey_d_smith]: can

632
00:22:31,971 –> 00:22:31,991
[mark_chamberlain]: d

633
00:22:32,071 –> 00:22:34,242
[ramsey_d_smith]: you define l d i for the
broader audience

634
00:22:33,948 –> 00:22:34,608
[bruno_caron]: okay

635
00:22:35,433 –> 00:22:36,896
[mark_chamberlain]: liability driven investing

636
00:22:36,425 –> 00:22:36,446
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

637
00:22:36,888 –> 00:22:37,172
[bruno_caron]: oh

638
00:22:38,158 –> 00:22:39,841
[mark_chamberlain]: is what the acronym stands for and

639
00:22:40,376 –> 00:22:40,396
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

640
00:22:40,542 –> 00:22:41,083
[mark_chamberlain]: it’s something

641
00:22:40,878 –> 00:22:41,101
[bruno_caron]: may

642
00:22:41,163 –> 00:22:42,545
[mark_chamberlain]: that the corporate

643
00:22:42,206 –> 00:22:42,408
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

644
00:22:42,585 –> 00:22:44,048
[mark_chamberlain]: defined benefit plans moved

645
00:22:44,045 –> 00:22:44,066
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

646
00:22:44,128 –> 00:22:47,293
[mark_chamberlain]: to following basically the moment and really

647
00:22:47,075 –> 00:22:47,096
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

648
00:22:47,353 –> 00:22:52,362
[mark_chamberlain]: increased after the pension protection act in
two thousand six where there was a c

649
00:22:52,582 –> 00:22:52,983
[mark_chamberlain]: change

650
00:22:53,105 –> 00:22:53,126
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

651
00:22:53,243 –> 00:22:58,231
[mark_chamberlain]: in the funding ratio calculations for d
b plants they could no longer use

652
00:22:58,565 –> 00:22:58,586
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

653
00:22:58,592 –> 00:23:06,005
[mark_chamberlain]: one discount rate to figure out what
whether they were funded or not and the

654
00:23:06,065 –> 00:23:07,287
[mark_chamberlain]: new rules said that for

655
00:23:07,488 –> 00:23:09,228
[bruno_caron]: yeah

656
00:23:07,928 –> 00:23:08,990
[mark_chamberlain]: those assets that

657
00:23:08,945 –> 00:23:08,966
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

658
00:23:09,170 –> 00:23:13,077
[mark_chamberlain]: were the essential assets of the plan
to be fully

659
00:23:13,095 –> 00:23:13,338
[michelle_richter]: yes

660
00:23:13,177 –> 00:23:19,124
[mark_chamberlain]: funded meaning for those retires that are
already in retire that part of the plan

661
00:23:19,204 –> 00:23:21,427
[mark_chamberlain]: had to be fully funded to be
secure

662
00:23:21,348 –> 00:23:22,158
[bruno_caron]: yeah

663
00:23:22,027 –> 00:23:23,429
[mark_chamberlain]: so they said those assets

664
00:23:23,465 –> 00:23:23,486
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

665
00:23:23,669 –> 00:23:24,530
[mark_chamberlain]: have to use a discount

666
00:23:24,386 –> 00:23:24,630
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

667
00:23:24,610 –> 00:23:29,267
[mark_chamberlain]: rate that’s basically a risk free rate
a short term you know investment grade bond

668
00:23:29,347 –> 00:23:33,774
[mark_chamberlain]: rate where as he for the employes
that are retiring down the road twenty thirty

669
00:23:33,794 –> 00:23:39,004
[mark_chamberlain]: years out they could use a longer
duration interest rate calculation so they can okay

670
00:23:39,647 –> 00:23:44,786
[mark_chamberlain]: we call a three bucket approach they
segmented the assets of the plan based on

671
00:23:45,026 –> 00:23:51,276
[mark_chamberlain]: how risky the retirement funding need was
and so it’s really an asset liability matching

672
00:23:51,637 –> 00:23:52,358
[mark_chamberlain]: kind of a formula

673
00:23:52,618 –> 00:23:52,638
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

674
00:23:53,179 –> 00:23:55,583
[mark_chamberlain]: so we said why couldn’t that apply
to individuals

675
00:23:56,096 –> 00:23:56,116
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

676
00:23:56,124 –> 00:24:01,758
[mark_chamberlain]: because if you try and make the
translation in terms of utility what onamous call

677
00:24:02,483 –> 00:24:03,388
[mark_chamberlain]: what’s the utility

678
00:24:03,035 –> 00:24:03,056
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

679
00:24:03,489 –> 00:24:03,549
[mark_chamberlain]: of

680
00:24:03,618 –> 00:24:03,881
[bruno_caron]: oh

681
00:24:03,871 –> 00:24:03,971
[mark_chamberlain]: the

682
00:24:03,905 –> 00:24:03,926
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

683
00:24:04,012 –> 00:24:10,317
[mark_chamberlain]: position for that individual the utility of
the essential expenses their food shelter

684
00:24:10,080 –> 00:24:10,101
[michelle_richter]: a

685
00:24:10,397 –> 00:24:16,823
[mark_chamberlain]: and health insurance is different than their
utility for travel and vacation expenses much less

686
00:24:16,903 –> 00:24:20,750
[mark_chamberlain]: essential and so lot of lot of
thinkers in the industry have come up with

687
00:24:20,850 –> 00:24:21,972
[mark_chamberlain]: you know a way of saying let’s

688
00:24:21,894 –> 00:24:21,915
[michelle_richter]: m

689
00:24:22,853 –> 00:24:26,059
[mark_chamberlain]: let’s they’ve use different terms for it
but

690
00:24:26,096 –> 00:24:26,756
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

691
00:24:27,401 –> 00:24:28,784
[mark_chamberlain]: they basically said let’s about

692
00:24:28,766 –> 00:24:30,386
[ramsey_d_smith]: yah

693
00:24:28,945 –> 00:24:30,169
[mark_chamberlain]: using annuities for

694
00:24:30,896 –> 00:24:31,161
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

695
00:24:31,614 –> 00:24:35,764
[mark_chamberlain]: most necessary part of a person’s balance
sheet in retirement

696
00:24:35,295 –> 00:24:35,315
[michelle_richter]: m

697
00:24:35,705 –> 00:24:35,726
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

698
00:24:36,385 –> 00:24:41,155
[mark_chamberlain]: and get those things funded in a
secure way and we could think about using

699
00:24:41,576 –> 00:24:46,464
[mark_chamberlain]: something that can have more variability for
the expenses that more discretionary

700
00:24:46,290 –> 00:24:46,310
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: m

701
00:24:47,145 –> 00:24:48,127
[mark_chamberlain]: and we think that applies

702
00:24:47,937 –> 00:24:47,958
[bruno_caron]: m

703
00:24:48,568 –> 00:24:49,449
[mark_chamberlain]: almost on a one to

704
00:24:49,440 –> 00:24:49,460
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: m

705
00:24:49,549 –> 00:24:56,437
[mark_chamberlain]: one basis just based on economics one
ant and so the idea that corporate pension

706
00:24:56,538 –> 00:25:02,596
[mark_chamberlain]: plans we’re forced to move down this
road in two thousand six but in the

707
00:25:02,956 –> 00:25:03,418
[mark_chamberlain]: personal

708
00:25:03,215 –> 00:25:03,236
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

709
00:25:03,538 –> 00:25:05,985
[mark_chamberlain]: financial planning world we’re still

710
00:25:06,116 –> 00:25:06,320
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

711
00:25:06,126 –> 00:25:13,029
[mark_chamberlain]: treating individuals in most software like old
defined benefit plants and we use one discount

712
00:25:13,089 –> 00:25:17,496
[mark_chamberlain]: rate which is usually based on i
didn’t expect to return from risk assets to

713
00:25:17,536 –> 00:25:22,927
[mark_chamberlain]: figure out whether somebody’s fully funded so
i record mentation is that the planning shift

714
00:25:23,288 –> 00:25:26,255
[mark_chamberlain]: to a discussion with participants about let’s
let’s

715
00:25:26,130 –> 00:25:26,150
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: m

716
00:25:26,515 –> 00:25:28,641
[mark_chamberlain]: have you sit down and figure out
with your spouse

717
00:25:28,826 –> 00:25:30,776
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

718
00:25:29,523 –> 00:25:30,889
[mark_chamberlain]: what your essential expenses

719
00:25:30,836 –> 00:25:31,946
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

720
00:25:31,010 –> 00:25:36,425
[mark_chamberlain]: are put those in the bucket number
one bucket number two could be the ones

721
00:25:36,465 –> 00:25:39,508
[mark_chamberlain]: that follow after that in terms of
need and then bucket number three could be

722
00:25:40,049 –> 00:25:43,072
[mark_chamberlain]: you know your your less essential or
your optional expenses

723
00:25:42,618 –> 00:25:42,879
[bruno_caron]: yeah

724
00:25:43,613 –> 00:25:46,341
[mark_chamberlain]: you could think about finding them differently
but for the first bucket

725
00:25:47,028 –> 00:25:47,231
[bruno_caron]: oh

726
00:25:47,134 –> 00:25:48,508
[mark_chamberlain]: should really consider an annuity

727
00:25:49,791 –> 00:25:52,736
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: m michel a mark i want to
jump in here so really interesting topic i

728
00:25:53,377 –> 00:25:57,123
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: just to pick it back i want
you just said mark so m the average

729
00:25:57,343 –> 00:26:02,933
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: plan you know participant in particular that
employ that’s maybe approaching retirement this might be

730
00:26:03,053 –> 00:26:07,160
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: like mind blowing concept re thinking how
they’re going to contribute

731
00:26:07,145 –> 00:26:07,166
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

732
00:26:07,240 –> 00:26:11,747
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: into their plan so from an education
perspective in particular bringing up the word annuity

733
00:26:13,398 –> 00:26:13,660
[bruno_caron]: oh

734
00:26:13,890 –> 00:26:16,334
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: now no verb michelle um but bringing
up

735
00:26:16,316 –> 00:26:16,583
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

736
00:26:16,374 –> 00:26:17,015
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: the word annuity

737
00:26:17,325 –> 00:26:17,668
[michelle_richter]: oh

738
00:26:17,576 –> 00:26:18,638
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: um you know

739
00:26:18,606 –> 00:26:18,808
[michelle_richter]: yeah

740
00:26:19,139 –> 00:26:23,967
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: who’s responsible for that education getting that
plan participant at the sponsor is at the

741
00:26:24,007 –> 00:26:26,815
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: provider combination of both and then i
have follow up question to that

742
00:26:29,517 –> 00:26:33,724
[michelle_richter]: i think it’s going to be everybody
you know so it’s all

743
00:26:33,686 –> 00:26:33,706
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

744
00:26:33,784 –> 00:26:36,629
[michelle_richter]: of the above and more it’s going
to take

745
00:26:36,506 –> 00:26:37,376
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

746
00:26:36,769 –> 00:26:42,258
[michelle_richter]: industry organizations like the irikis has begun
working on consumer

747
00:26:42,198 –> 00:26:42,459
[bruno_caron]: oh

748
00:26:42,318 –> 00:26:42,639
[michelle_richter]: facing

749
00:26:42,515 –> 00:26:42,536
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

750
00:26:42,719 –> 00:26:44,582
[michelle_richter]: materials there is a chance

751
00:26:44,456 –> 00:26:45,746
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

752
00:26:44,722 –> 00:26:45,924
[michelle_richter]: we may do so together

753
00:26:45,918 –> 00:26:45,938
[bruno_caron]: o

754
00:26:46,064 –> 00:26:46,725
[michelle_richter]: with the alliance

755
00:26:46,646 –> 00:26:47,636
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

756
00:26:46,805 –> 00:26:50,652
[michelle_richter]: for lifetime income so i think not
only

757
00:26:50,615 –> 00:26:51,243
[ramsey_d_smith]: m yeah

758
00:26:51,133 –> 00:26:56,542
[michelle_richter]: the categories in cluded are those responsible
for education but more broadly

759
00:26:56,598 –> 00:26:57,288
[bruno_caron]: yeah

760
00:26:56,742 –> 00:26:57,423
[michelle_richter]: the industry

761
00:26:57,162 –> 00:26:57,491
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: did you

762
00:26:58,184 –> 00:27:02,612
[michelle_richter]: needs through dispassionate third party kind of
organizations

763
00:27:01,796 –> 00:27:01,897
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

764
00:27:03,153 –> 00:27:09,168
[michelle_richter]: as well as through the individual product
providers as well as through record keepers through

765
00:27:09,208 –> 00:27:16,112
[michelle_richter]: the employer themselves the employer is the
person that the plan participant or the entity

766
00:27:16,172 –> 00:27:19,137
[michelle_richter]: that the person the participant feels they
can trust

767
00:27:19,438 –> 00:27:19,950
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: hm

768
00:27:20,079 –> 00:27:23,645
[michelle_richter]: and rightly so so the materials have
to get you

769
00:27:24,236 –> 00:27:24,561
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

770
00:27:24,546 –> 00:27:26,610
[michelle_richter]: playin sponsors but they also have to
get

771
00:27:26,696 –> 00:27:26,917
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

772
00:27:27,251 –> 00:27:30,336
[michelle_richter]: from there to to the end participants
and that’s never

773
00:27:30,086 –> 00:27:30,308
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

774
00:27:30,436 –> 00:27:30,917
[michelle_richter]: an easy

775
00:27:32,216 –> 00:27:32,441
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

776
00:27:32,960 –> 00:27:33,461
[michelle_richter]: task to

777
00:27:33,446 –> 00:27:34,196
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

778
00:27:33,561 –> 00:27:38,069
[michelle_richter]: accomplish because most men gins choose not
to engage with their plans

779
00:27:38,556 –> 00:27:39,030
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: hm

780
00:27:38,830 –> 00:27:39,051
[michelle_richter]: um

781
00:27:39,305 –> 00:27:39,326
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

782
00:27:39,692 –> 00:27:41,134
[michelle_richter]: and that’s pretty unfortunate

783
00:27:41,298 –> 00:27:41,521
[bruno_caron]: oh

784
00:27:41,334 –> 00:27:44,800
[michelle_richter]: but they choose not to write up
until the point of retirement and then they

785
00:27:44,900 –> 00:27:51,553
[michelle_richter]: experience overwhelm or the perience shame for
not having saved enough and at that point

786
00:27:52,275 –> 00:27:53,918
[michelle_richter]: there’s you know a real challenge

787
00:27:53,816 –> 00:27:54,716
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

788
00:27:54,118 –> 00:27:54,299
[michelle_richter]: to

789
00:27:54,716 –> 00:27:54,777
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

790
00:27:55,121 –> 00:27:56,383
[michelle_richter]: help them you know when it’s

791
00:27:56,880 –> 00:27:57,660
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: yeah

792
00:27:57,185 –> 00:27:57,807
[michelle_richter]: on that last

793
00:27:57,746 –> 00:27:58,087
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

794
00:27:57,887 –> 00:27:58,930
[michelle_richter]: day before they retire

795
00:27:58,910 –> 00:27:59,072
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: yeah

796
00:27:59,030 –> 00:28:00,413
[michelle_richter]: you know it’s much better if

797
00:28:00,671 –> 00:28:00,753
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah

798
00:28:00,895 –> 00:28:01,356
[michelle_richter]: a financial

799
00:28:01,038 –> 00:28:01,340
[bruno_caron]: oh

800
00:28:01,286 –> 00:28:01,572
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

801
00:28:01,436 –> 00:28:04,263
[michelle_richter]: professional is in front of that person
sooner than that

802
00:28:04,470 –> 00:28:06,463
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: they kind of set it on auto
pilot so

803
00:28:07,575 –> 00:28:07,818
[michelle_richter]: yeah

804
00:28:07,641 –> 00:28:13,386
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: next question is am i hearing maybe
a new career path or even a talent

805
00:28:13,446 –> 00:28:19,015
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: opportunity for agents um so the plan
provider i’m just the practicality of how an

806
00:28:19,075 –> 00:28:22,841
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: annuity is sold you know who has
to sign the apple how does this happen

807
00:28:23,002 –> 00:28:23,222
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: so i’m

808
00:28:23,225 –> 00:28:23,246
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

809
00:28:23,262 –> 00:28:28,230
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: thinking through where does the role of
the agent plan is the provider hiring agents

810
00:28:28,270 –> 00:28:28,931
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: as consultants

811
00:28:29,165 –> 00:28:29,186
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

812
00:28:29,172 –> 00:28:32,397
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: or or agents going to have employee
opportunities in within plan

813
00:28:32,285 –> 00:28:32,306
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

814
00:28:32,457 –> 00:28:35,563
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: providers going forward can you speak a
little bit about how you in vision

815
00:28:35,655 –> 00:28:36,804
[michelle_richter]: yeah

816
00:28:35,883 –> 00:28:37,647
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: i know we don’t know exactly but
how this

817
00:28:37,599 –> 00:28:37,782
[michelle_richter]: yeah

818
00:28:37,707 –> 00:28:38,148
[tisa_rabun_marshall]: all works

819
00:28:40,106 –> 00:28:40,266
[michelle_richter]: well

820
00:28:40,320 –> 00:28:41,130

[ramsey_d_smith]: right there’s a what is the you
put up your shingle now what does that

[ramsey_d_smith]: right

867
00:29:46,115 –> 00:29:47,277
[michelle_richter]: great question it’s

868
00:29:47,186 –> 00:29:48,155
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

869
00:29:47,337 –> 00:29:51,464
[michelle_richter]: not clear to me either i just
went and got my a if from f

870
00:29:51,565 –> 00:29:54,549
[michelle_richter]: i three sixty so that i could
be an accredited investment

871
00:29:54,326 –> 00:29:54,346
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

872
00:29:54,590 –> 00:29:55,150
[michelle_richter]: fiduciary

873
00:29:55,595 –> 00:29:55,616
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

874
00:29:56,052 –> 00:30:01,942
[michelle_richter]: even though what i focus on not
so much investments right it’s it’s de cumulation

875
00:30:01,385 –> 00:30:01,406
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

876
00:30:02,563 –> 00:30:08,773
[michelle_richter]: but but you know so so my
thinking is i went and got my insurance

877
00:30:08,873 –> 00:30:09,314
[michelle_richter]: license

878
00:30:09,386 –> 00:30:09,589
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

879
00:30:09,394 –> 00:30:14,245
[michelle_richter]: fret and i got my have my
r i a set up i have a

880
00:30:14,305 –> 00:30:21,195
[michelle_richter]: sixty five and i am now i
have the a i f so so my

881
00:30:21,275 –> 00:30:25,297
[michelle_richter]: thinking is i’m covered under the umbrella
of those

882
00:30:25,142 –> 00:30:25,163
[mark_chamberlain]: m

883
00:30:25,357 –> 00:30:25,678
[michelle_richter]: things

884
00:30:25,736 –> 00:30:25,756
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

885
00:30:25,878 –> 00:30:32,449
[michelle_richter]: but i have no clarity whatsoever as
to legally how this domain develops i know

886
00:30:32,670 –> 00:30:33,271
[michelle_richter]: only that

887
00:30:33,464 –> 00:30:33,624
[paul_tyler]: yeah

888
00:30:33,812 –> 00:30:34,593
[michelle_richter]: experts is

889
00:30:34,649 –> 00:30:34,750
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

890
00:30:34,673 –> 00:30:39,287
[michelle_richter]: needed around inuits delivered to plan advisors

891
00:30:39,566 –> 00:30:39,586
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

892
00:30:39,567 –> 00:30:42,531
[michelle_richter]: so one of those is going to
be what qualifies

893
00:30:43,066 –> 00:30:43,556
[ramsey_d_smith]: hm

894
00:30:43,132 –> 00:30:44,854
[michelle_richter]: mark and me to be able to
do that

895
00:30:44,966 –> 00:30:44,986
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

896
00:30:45,114 –> 00:30:52,306
[paul_tyler]: well interesting discussion now i think if
i come from the institutional side to say

897
00:30:52,807 –> 00:30:58,061
[paul_tyler]: know ramsey i expect this advisor to
be an r a seems like a very

898
00:30:58,182 –> 00:31:04,999
[paul_tyler]: logical response however you know michelle my
experience has been you know

899
00:31:05,156 –> 00:31:05,518
[ramsey_d_smith]: yah

900
00:31:05,800 –> 00:31:07,641
[paul_tyler]: there’s not such there’s no such thing
as

901
00:31:07,595 –> 00:31:07,616
[ramsey_d_smith]: h

902
00:31:07,701 –> 00:31:09,203
[paul_tyler]: a good compensation

903
00:31:10,235 –> 00:31:10,256
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

904
00:31:10,354 –> 00:31:13,559
[paul_tyler]: perfect compensation planet really what i do
see is that

905
00:31:13,475 –> 00:31:13,496
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

906
00:31:13,599 –> 00:31:16,083
[paul_tyler]: the compensation has got to match up
with the results

907
00:31:16,016 –> 00:31:16,036
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

908
00:31:17,205 –> 00:31:18,608

927
00:32:07,176 –> 00:32:07,517
[paul_tyler]: balance

[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

931
00:32:09,216 –> 00:32:11,340
[michelle_richter]: well the answer is

932
00:32:11,495 –> 00:32:11,516
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

933
00:32:11,501 –> 00:32:14,850
[michelle_richter]: not a um it’s not

[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

935
00:32:15,695 –> 00:32:15,876
[michelle_richter]: um

00:32:16,166 –> 00:32:16,471
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

937
00:32:16,257 –> 00:32:22,135
[michelle_richter]: in my view so you know i
or at least a um is to me

938
00:32:22,436 –> 00:32:28,446
[michelle_richter]: not my preferred building methodology for the
wealth management domain i do think it’s appropriate

939
00:32:28,486 –> 00:32:32,152
[michelle_richter]: for the asset management domain but that’s
going to get us off on a whole

940
00:32:32,212 –> 00:32:32,372
[michelle_richter]: other

941
00:32:32,256 –> 00:32:32,457
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

942
00:32:32,492 –> 00:32:35,678
[michelle_richter]: track and i still have it i
a tribe to deliver so

943
00:32:35,906 –> 00:32:35,926
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

944
00:32:36,419 –> 00:32:37,160
[michelle_richter]: um you know

945
00:32:37,343 –> 00:32:38,003
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

946
00:32:37,441 –> 00:32:37,541
[michelle_richter]: but

947
00:32:37,835 –> 00:32:37,856
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

948
00:32:37,941 –> 00:32:38,282
[michelle_richter]: it does

949
00:32:38,389 –> 00:32:38,409
[ramsey_d_smith]: i

950
00:32:38,402 –> 00:32:43,170
[michelle_richter]: tie into what i want to talk
about which is the predominance of a um

951
00:32:43,330 –> 00:32:51,170
[michelle_richter]: as a building method it does cause
distortion in thinking that i’m going to elucidate

952
00:32:51,691 –> 00:32:54,741
[michelle_richter]: pretty deeply should i go for it

953
00:32:55,319 –> 00:32:55,861
[ramsey_d_smith]: rock and roll

954
00:32:57,155 –> 00:33:03,385
[michelle_richter]: okay um this you all are get
very excited right now because i’m about to

955
00:33:03,906 –> 00:33:12,404
[michelle_richter]: go bananas and i am going to
issue called arms i’m looking for members of

956
00:33:12,785 –> 00:33:13,607
[michelle_richter]: the society

957
00:33:13,145 –> 00:33:13,166
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

958
00:33:13,647 –> 00:33:21,652
[michelle_richter]: of actuaries nata i r i and
any other industry group that you can think

959
00:33:21,772 –> 00:33:28,443
[michelle_richter]: of that might find this topic of
concern i am about to make a big

960
00:33:28,543 –> 00:33:34,839
[michelle_richter]: bold assert and which i will back
up with three less big assertions so big

961
00:33:34,940 –> 00:33:43,415
[michelle_richter]: bold assertion number one is that non
codification of verb sales and insurance means that

962
00:33:43,595 –> 00:33:46,740
[michelle_richter]: intellectual property cannot have value

963
00:33:46,526 –> 00:33:47,576
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

964
00:33:46,840 –> 00:33:52,992
[michelle_richter]: and insurance i g i will defend
why this is true with the following three

965
00:33:53,092 –> 00:33:53,653
[michelle_richter]: assertions

966
00:33:53,585 –> 00:33:53,606
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

967
00:33:54,955 –> 00:34:00,785
[michelle_richter]: mark this moment in the podcast so
that you can tag the people that you

968
00:34:00,865 –> 00:34:04,271
[michelle_richter]: know from the industry organizations i just
mentioned

969
00:34:04,406 –> 00:34:04,648
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

970
00:34:04,772 –> 00:34:07,609
[michelle_richter]: and tell them when to start listening
it’s right here

971
00:34:07,463 –> 00:34:07,725
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

972
00:34:08,275 –> 00:34:14,826
[michelle_richter]: a non codification of verb sales and
insurance means i p can’t have value why

973
00:34:15,807 –> 00:34:22,221
[michelle_richter]: well the above mentioned fact is true
because of the intersection between how products

974
00:34:22,136 –> 00:34:22,378
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

975
00:34:22,642 –> 00:34:29,909
[michelle_richter]: sell and how trademark law works i
will explain further in a moment sertion number

976
00:34:29,989 –> 00:34:37,563
[michelle_richter]: three is that intellectual property having value
is fundamental to the functioning of a capitalistic

977
00:34:37,703 –> 00:34:48,360
[michelle_richter]: system assertion number four in a deutalized
world where insurance manufacturing is now entirely vertically

978
00:34:48,481 –> 00:34:57,335
[michelle_richter]: disintegrated from distribution i p can only
come to have value by codifying insurance advisement

979
00:34:57,896 –> 00:35:06,339
[michelle_richter]: as a scalable overseeable nationally regulated discipline
so now i move to proving assertion number

980
00:35:06,539 –> 00:35:08,702
[michelle_richter]: one i p has no value in
my

981
00:35:08,756 –> 00:35:09,059
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

982
00:35:08,803 –> 00:35:15,634
[michelle_richter]: domain by proving assertions to through four
starting with assertion two part one how to

983
00:35:15,674 –> 00:35:20,671
[michelle_richter]: product sell to understand this we need
first to define the word product and then

984
00:35:20,711 –> 00:35:28,095
[michelle_richter]: the word sell products are nounce in
the context of insurance and financial services products

985
00:35:28,296 –> 00:35:38,092
[michelle_richter]: are issuable containers and their distribution is
highly regulated products are issuable legale contracts within

986
00:35:38,272 –> 00:35:40,936
[michelle_richter]: which intellectual property can be imbedded

987
00:35:41,156 –> 00:35:42,146
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

988
00:35:41,678 –> 00:35:42,619
[michelle_richter]: and in exchange

989
00:35:42,146 –> 00:35:42,367
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

990
00:35:42,719 –> 00:35:50,633
[michelle_richter]: for the distribution of which compensation can
be paid to a financial professional in respect

991
00:35:50,853 –> 00:35:58,727
[michelle_richter]: of either but never concurrently a or
b a is from inside the noun in

992
00:35:58,847 –> 00:36:03,958
[michelle_richter]: direct respect to sale thereof this refers
to agency and brokerage

993
00:36:04,590 –> 00:36:04,753
[ramsey_d_smith]: her

994
00:36:04,780 –> 00:36:10,870
[michelle_richter]: where as b is charged upon the
a u a or a um there formed

995
00:36:11,411 –> 00:36:12,072
[michelle_richter]: following a

996
00:36:12,056 –> 00:36:12,276
[ramsey_d_smith]: yes

997
00:36:12,192 –> 00:36:18,313
[michelle_richter]: products introduction to an advised portfolio thus
b refers to the r i a channel

998
00:36:19,465 –> 00:36:21,789
[michelle_richter]: now that we know what product means
we move on to sell

999
00:36:21,956 –> 00:36:22,297
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1000
00:36:22,791 –> 00:36:24,494
[michelle_richter]: sell means the exchange

1001
00:36:24,065 –> 00:36:24,206
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1002
00:36:24,654 –> 00:36:30,323
[michelle_richter]: of remuneration in direct respect to x
x is a verb in the r a

1003
00:36:30,444 –> 00:36:33,070
[michelle_richter]: channel and it’s a noun in the
agent

1004
00:36:33,019 –> 00:36:33,121
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah

1005
00:36:33,431 –> 00:36:42,196
[michelle_richter]: broker channels wholesalers are people who so
routinely sell holes that we can describe

1006
00:36:41,857 –> 00:36:41,878
[ramsey_d_smith]: i

1007
00:36:42,256 –> 00:36:47,265
[michelle_richter]: their identity by adding an r to
the end of the verb that they retain

1008
00:36:47,405 –> 00:36:53,947
[michelle_richter]: we perform analogy runners routine ly run
we don’t call someone a runner who once

1009
00:36:54,027 –> 00:36:57,872
[michelle_richter]: ran across across the street so whole
sailors

1010
00:36:58,257 –> 00:36:58,418
[ramsey_d_smith]: now

1011
00:36:58,413 –> 00:37:04,720
[michelle_richter]: sell nouns holes are nouns the human
mind can’t conceive of the premise of a

1012
00:37:04,760 –> 00:37:12,125
[michelle_richter]: whole verb therefore whole sailors are people
who sell holes holes must be nouns and

1013
00:37:12,286 –> 00:37:17,717
[michelle_richter]: non sell only when they have a
whole sailor selling them whole sailors

1014
00:37:17,606 –> 00:37:17,787
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1015
00:37:17,837 –> 00:37:23,466
[michelle_richter]: work for either a non manufacturer or
a noun seller and organization that sells nouns

1016
00:37:23,907 –> 00:37:29,276
[michelle_richter]: will not switch witch now and it
has its whole sailers focused on selling unless

1017
00:37:29,376 –> 00:37:36,488
[michelle_richter]: the new non is more profitable than
is the incumbent now portfolio that’s the reason

1018
00:37:36,608 –> 00:37:43,700
[michelle_richter]: why a product concept cannot have value
because is valuable about the product the non

1019
00:37:44,381 –> 00:37:52,114
[michelle_richter]: is the sellers prior investment in manufacturing
and or wholesaling infrastructure not the clever intellectual

1020
00:37:52,194 –> 00:37:55,165
[michelle_richter]: prof property that does not deliver a
higher

1021
00:37:55,136 –> 00:37:55,460
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1022
00:37:55,225 –> 00:38:02,041
[michelle_richter]: profit margin than the incumbent so that’s
the first half of assertion to it goes

1023
00:38:02,181 –> 00:38:04,525
[michelle_richter]: way quicker from here so stick with
me okay

1024
00:38:04,805 –> 00:38:04,826
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1025
00:38:05,046 –> 00:38:06,648
[michelle_richter]: it’s like lightning from here okay

1026
00:38:07,188 –> 00:38:07,289
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1027
00:38:07,971 –> 00:38:14,582
[michelle_richter]: the second half of assertion to is
about tree marking trademark trade marking and the

1028
00:38:14,642 –> 00:38:19,991
[michelle_richter]: application of trade marking is different for
a brand name than it is for intellectual

1029
00:38:20,051 –> 00:38:25,059
[michelle_richter]: property the how you defend a brand
name in court with a trademark it’s really

1030
00:38:25,139 –> 00:38:27,483
[michelle_richter]: easy but defending intellectual property

1031
00:38:27,581 –> 00:38:27,725
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1032
00:38:27,683 –> 00:38:33,092
[michelle_richter]: the trade mark has more challenge to
it in this case i’m talking about intellectual

1033
00:38:33,173 –> 00:38:41,244
[michelle_richter]: property protection uh it requires the defense
of a trademark requires the intellectual property to

1034
00:38:41,304 –> 00:38:50,117
[michelle_richter]: be now embedable whereas intellectual property that
is service marked requires the i p to

1035
00:38:50,197 –> 00:38:55,924
[michelle_richter]: be verb impedible if you google trademark
definition

1036
00:38:55,916 –> 00:38:57,678
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah oh

1037
00:38:57,875 –> 00:39:00,419
[michelle_richter]: you see that when applied to intellectual

1038
00:39:00,326 –> 00:39:02,486
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1039
00:39:00,499 –> 00:39:03,404
[michelle_richter]: property defense as differs from brand defense

1040
00:39:03,596 –> 00:39:03,899
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1041
00:39:04,025 –> 00:39:09,013
[michelle_richter]: that the definition of this word requires
the ip owner to be

1042
00:39:08,975 –> 00:39:08,996
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1043
00:39:09,193 –> 00:39:17,085
[michelle_richter]: able to either manufacture or to sell
remember what sell means from the above the

1044
00:39:17,165 –> 00:39:18,126
[michelle_richter]: non right

1045
00:39:18,591 –> 00:39:18,692
[ramsey_d_smith]: so

1046
00:39:18,746 –> 00:39:25,412
[michelle_richter]: so product concepts can’t have value because
of the intersection between how product sells and

1047
00:39:25,753 –> 00:39:33,632
[michelle_richter]: how trade mark law is applied okay
insurance is the liability or contra asset minimization

1048
00:39:33,732 –> 00:39:34,013
[michelle_richter]: field

1049
00:39:34,523 –> 00:39:34,788
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

1050
00:39:34,745 –> 00:39:38,290
[michelle_richter]: what just stick with me on insurance

1051
00:39:38,396 –> 00:39:38,659
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1052
00:39:38,411 –> 00:39:40,434
[michelle_richter]: is about minimizing consumers

1053
00:39:40,226 –> 00:39:40,508
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1054
00:39:40,494 –> 00:39:42,758
[michelle_richter]: liabilities okay and i’m not going

1055
00:39:42,685 –> 00:39:42,806
[ramsey_d_smith]: right

1056
00:39:42,778 –> 00:39:47,326
[michelle_richter]: to bring up the contraascit thing again
super complicated so i mean shorten it by

1057
00:39:47,426 –> 00:39:56,887
[michelle_richter]: saying liability minimization insurance advisor is not
a defined term financial advisor is a defined

1058
00:39:57,027 –> 00:39:58,909
[michelle_richter]: term and it means

1059
00:39:58,954 –> 00:39:59,096
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1060
00:39:59,330 –> 00:40:06,647
[michelle_richter]: person who holds the authority to sell
verbs this means person has an r a

1061
00:40:06,768 –> 00:40:14,685
[michelle_richter]: affiliation r i s sell verbs only
agents and brokers sell nouns only financial advisers

1062
00:40:14,826 –> 00:40:17,971
[michelle_richter]: provide ongoing asset maximization advising

1063
00:40:18,176 –> 00:40:18,196
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1064
00:40:18,532 –> 00:40:19,914
[michelle_richter]: and they frequently receive

1065
00:40:19,856 –> 00:40:20,158
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1066
00:40:19,994 –> 00:40:22,671
[michelle_richter]: thee compensation v a u m

1067
00:40:24,296 –> 00:40:24,678
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1068
00:40:24,379 –> 00:40:32,051
[michelle_richter]: this asset maximization advising is a service
p imbedded in services for example managed account

1069
00:40:32,212 –> 00:40:33,594
[michelle_richter]: services provided by

1070
00:40:33,626 –> 00:40:35,126
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1071
00:40:33,754 –> 00:40:38,442
[michelle_richter]: morning star ink are service markable thus
they have been

1072
00:40:38,413 –> 00:40:38,554
[ramsey_d_smith]: sir

1073
00:40:38,602 –> 00:40:46,092
[michelle_richter]: service marked not trade markable and not
trade marked because their verbs which are services

1074
00:40:46,613 –> 00:40:57,288
[michelle_richter]: not none absent codifying insurance advisement so
that insurance professionals can also sell herbs by

1075
00:40:57,368 –> 00:40:57,849
[michelle_richter]: which i am

1076
00:40:57,987 –> 00:40:58,150
[ramsey_d_smith]: yes

1077
00:40:57,989 –> 00:41:04,100
[michelle_richter]: saying absent popularizing ability approach like benefits
under advisement

1078
00:41:04,166 –> 00:41:04,186
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1079
00:41:04,701 –> 00:41:07,926
[michelle_richter]: or income under advisement there cannot

1080
00:41:07,856 –> 00:41:08,138
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1081
00:41:08,046 –> 00:41:12,514
[michelle_richter]: be valued to intellectual property in our
field because you cannot

1082
00:41:12,536 –> 00:41:13,138
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1083
00:41:12,594 –> 00:41:17,842
[michelle_richter]: defend it v s service mark because
there is no framework for scalablyselling services

1084
00:41:17,786 –> 00:41:17,947
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1085
00:41:17,963 –> 00:41:22,871
[michelle_richter]: in our domain and you can’t sell
it as a noun because an organization can

1086
00:41:23,011 –> 00:41:29,462
[michelle_richter]: only monetize a trade mark and insure
from previous investment in manufacturing and distribution and

1087
00:41:29,542 –> 00:41:35,412
[michelle_richter]: encompant only does this if the product
is more profitable than it’s existing portfolio that’s

1088
00:41:35,512 –> 00:41:36,033
[michelle_richter]: not likely

1089
00:41:35,831 –> 00:41:36,266
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1090
00:41:36,153 –> 00:41:39,398
[michelle_richter]: in today’s feconte its environment so again
because

1091
00:41:39,386 –> 00:41:40,586
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1092
00:41:39,458 –> 00:41:40,580
[michelle_richter]: my prior words are true

1093
00:41:41,006 –> 00:41:41,288
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1094
00:41:41,201 –> 00:41:42,884
[michelle_richter]: not having a scale able advisement

1095
00:41:42,902 –> 00:41:42,922
[ramsey_d_smith]: i

1096
00:41:42,964 –> 00:41:44,647
[michelle_richter]: frame for liability reduction

1097
00:41:44,952 –> 00:41:44,972
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1098
00:41:45,088 –> 00:41:50,437
[michelle_richter]: means intellectual property that is service marked
in our field also cannot value because it

1099
00:41:50,477 –> 00:41:56,266
[michelle_richter]: cannot be sold so concludes my proof
of assertion to and i’ll move on to

1100
00:41:56,307 –> 00:42:01,316
[michelle_richter]: assertion three and less there are questions
of which i’m sure there are ready oh

1101
00:42:02,944 –> 00:42:04,346
[ramsey_d_smith]: this is a this is a complex

1102
00:42:04,127 –> 00:42:04,250
[michelle_richter]: ah

1103
00:42:04,446 –> 00:42:06,330
[ramsey_d_smith]: geometric proof you’re taking us through here

1104
00:42:07,475 –> 00:42:08,742
[michelle_richter]: it is i understand that

1105
00:42:08,714 –> 00:42:08,974
[ramsey_d_smith]: europe

1106
00:42:08,842 –> 00:42:10,129
[michelle_richter]: but i’m doing it for a reason

1107
00:42:10,430 –> 00:42:11,197
[ramsey_d_smith]: you’re a mute paul

1108
00:42:11,487 –> 00:42:11,790
[michelle_richter]: i want

1109
00:42:13,257 –> 00:42:13,946
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1110
00:42:13,325 –> 00:42:18,053
[michelle_richter]: i want the industry organizations that are
or flagged to hear this

1111
00:42:18,446 –> 00:42:18,814
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1112
00:42:18,594 –> 00:42:20,898
[michelle_richter]: re play it they’re gonna have to
play it a lot of times

1113
00:42:20,834 –> 00:42:21,914
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1114
00:42:20,986 –> 00:42:21,006
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1115
00:42:21,018 –> 00:42:21,719
[michelle_richter]: to get the logic

1116
00:42:22,595 –> 00:42:22,616
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1117
00:42:22,861 –> 00:42:23,221
[michelle_richter]: and so

1118
00:42:23,156 –> 00:42:23,458
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1119
00:42:23,522 –> 00:42:24,504
[michelle_richter]: i’m going really

1120
00:42:24,505 –> 00:42:24,626
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1121
00:42:24,604 –> 00:42:25,786
[michelle_richter]: in depth in what the logic

1122
00:42:25,870 –> 00:42:25,890
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1123
00:42:25,906 –> 00:42:29,634
[michelle_richter]: is so that it can’t be said
she just at a high level

1124
00:42:29,585 –> 00:42:29,606
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1125
00:42:29,794 –> 00:42:32,079
[michelle_richter]: said you know something crazy and she’s
always saying

1126
00:42:32,000 –> 00:42:32,546
[ramsey_d_smith]: hm

1127
00:42:32,139 –> 00:42:33,602
[michelle_richter]: something crazy so i can just

1128
00:42:33,524 –> 00:42:33,727
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1129
00:42:33,722 –> 00:42:35,807
[michelle_richter]: kind of like whip it off you

1130
00:42:35,745 –> 00:42:35,926
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1131
00:42:35,847 –> 00:42:39,055
[michelle_richter]: know like i’m going deep into it
because my words are true

1132
00:42:39,014 –> 00:42:39,277
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1133
00:42:39,296 –> 00:42:42,243
[michelle_richter]: and they have implications to society more
broadly

1134
00:42:42,334 –> 00:42:44,898
[paul_tyler]: well yeah and i just a couple

1135
00:42:45,596 –> 00:42:45,897
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1136
00:42:45,779 –> 00:42:46,260
[paul_tyler]: one question

1137
00:42:46,043 –> 00:42:46,284
[mark_chamberlain]: oh

1138
00:42:46,360 –> 00:42:46,681
[paul_tyler]: a couple of

1139
00:42:46,685 –> 00:42:46,827
[michelle_richter]: yeah

1140
00:42:46,721 –> 00:42:47,702
[paul_tyler]: observations one is

1141
00:42:47,655 –> 00:42:47,778
[michelle_richter]: yeah

1142
00:42:48,945 –> 00:42:50,728
[paul_tyler]: can we put this in our show
notes or do you have this on a

1143
00:42:50,768 –> 00:42:52,450
[paul_tyler]: website where we can put a link
to it because

1144
00:42:52,355 –> 00:42:52,376
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1145
00:42:52,490 –> 00:42:53,312
[paul_tyler]: people need to read this

1146
00:42:53,325 –> 00:42:53,468
[michelle_richter]: yeah

1147
00:42:53,773 –> 00:42:54,681
[paul_tyler]: they will have to e is

1148
00:42:54,837 –> 00:42:55,321
[michelle_richter]: i’ll give it to you

1149
00:42:55,374 –> 00:42:56,195
[paul_tyler]: okay good

1150
00:42:56,537 –> 00:42:56,658
[michelle_richter]: yeah

1151
00:42:56,675 –> 00:42:56,696
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1152
00:42:56,896 –> 00:42:59,060
[paul_tyler]: other observation is you know these words
are

1153
00:42:59,366 –> 00:42:59,528
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1154
00:43:00,021 –> 00:43:05,591
[paul_tyler]: complicated couple o things i heard in
their agents versus advisors because even more complicated

1155
00:43:05,631 –> 00:43:06,813
[paul_tyler]: michele than that like for instance

1156
00:43:07,717 –> 00:43:07,779
[michelle_richter]: ah

1157
00:43:07,894 –> 00:43:12,562
[paul_tyler]: state of connecticut does not allow us
to talk about agents is that interesting as

1158
00:43:12,662 –> 00:43:17,931
[paul_tyler]: a independent product manufacture we have to
call them independent producers does anybody

1159
00:43:17,912 –> 00:43:17,953
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1160
00:43:17,991 –> 00:43:18,131
[paul_tyler]: know

1161
00:43:18,175 –> 00:43:18,360
[michelle_richter]: huh

1162
00:43:18,192 –> 00:43:19,654
[paul_tyler]: that does anybody under and they

1163
00:43:19,685 –> 00:43:19,706
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1164
00:43:19,694 –> 00:43:20,616
[paul_tyler]: do consume now

1165
00:43:21,015 –> 00:43:21,137
[michelle_richter]: no

1166
00:43:21,677 –> 00:43:22,960
[paul_tyler]: but that you are an independent

1167
00:43:22,816 –> 00:43:22,918
[michelle_richter]: no

1168
00:43:23,220 –> 00:43:27,988
[paul_tyler]: you know ramsey is an independent producer
so just footnote that there are some very

1169
00:43:28,148 –> 00:43:28,489
[paul_tyler]: strange

1170
00:43:28,195 –> 00:43:28,663
[michelle_richter]: damn

1171
00:43:28,569 –> 00:43:30,732
[paul_tyler]: vagaries in existing

1172
00:43:30,545 –> 00:43:30,786
[michelle_richter]: yeah

1173
00:43:31,193 –> 00:43:31,982
[paul_tyler]: league structures

1174
00:43:32,378 –> 00:43:32,680
[michelle_richter]: and not

1175
00:43:33,164 –> 00:43:33,389
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1176
00:43:33,455 –> 00:43:33,795
[michelle_richter]: that’s the

1177
00:43:33,806 –> 00:43:34,026
[ramsey_d_smith]: yah

1178
00:43:33,855 –> 00:43:37,020
[michelle_richter]: whole point i mean it’s you know
our field is state regulated

1179
00:43:37,004 –> 00:43:37,347
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1180
00:43:37,101 –> 00:43:39,184
[michelle_richter]: and every state has a different impression

1181
00:43:38,904 –> 00:43:38,924
[ramsey_d_smith]: h

1182
00:43:39,324 –> 00:43:40,486
[michelle_richter]: of what our behavior

1183
00:43:40,454 –> 00:43:41,234
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1184
00:43:40,546 –> 00:43:43,972
[michelle_richter]: is supposed to look like and so
because it’s not a nationally

1185
00:43:43,685 –> 00:43:43,706
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1186
00:43:44,072 –> 00:43:44,633
[michelle_richter]: regulated

1187
00:43:44,497 –> 00:43:44,538
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1188
00:43:44,733 –> 00:43:46,307
[michelle_richter]: field you can’t get scale able

1189
00:43:46,955 –> 00:43:47,197
[paul_tyler]: right

1190
00:43:48,215 –> 00:43:48,236
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1191
00:43:48,425 –> 00:43:52,789
[michelle_richter]: but since but because of demutualization now

1192
00:43:52,856 –> 00:43:52,957
[paul_tyler]: ah

1193
00:43:53,771 –> 00:43:57,898
[michelle_richter]: it’s no longer the case that distribution
and manufacturing are in the same

1194
00:43:57,867 –> 00:43:57,968
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah

1195
00:43:57,998 –> 00:43:58,799
[michelle_richter]: organization

1196
00:43:58,946 –> 00:43:59,188
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1197
00:43:59,480 –> 00:44:02,726
[michelle_richter]: so i’m not sure that the i’m
sure

1198
00:44:02,735 –> 00:44:03,001
[ramsey_d_smith]: m oh

1199
00:44:02,866 –> 00:44:05,110
[michelle_richter]: that state regulation of products

1200
00:44:04,676 –> 00:44:05,636
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1201
00:44:05,390 –> 00:44:06,712
[michelle_richter]: is has merit

1202
00:44:06,944 –> 00:44:08,294
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1203
00:44:07,313 –> 00:44:09,337
[michelle_richter]: i’m less certain that state regulation of

1204
00:44:09,335 –> 00:44:09,356
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1205
00:44:09,374 –> 00:44:09,741
[paul_tyler]: okay

1206
00:44:09,397 –> 00:44:13,964
[michelle_richter]: distribution remains the most meritorious method of
oversight

1207
00:44:14,004 –> 00:44:14,186
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1208
00:44:14,276 –> 00:44:14,517
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1209
00:44:14,727 –> 00:44:19,767
[michelle_richter]: given that those entities no longer live
with each other no

1210
00:44:20,446 –> 00:44:22,109
[paul_tyler]: interesting ay that’s a whole nother podcast

1211
00:44:21,926 –> 00:44:21,946
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1212
00:44:23,527 –> 00:44:23,729
[michelle_richter]: yes

1213
00:44:24,112 –> 00:44:24,412
[paul_tyler]: the other

1214
00:44:24,301 –> 00:44:24,896
[ramsey_d_smith]: ah

1215
00:44:24,553 –> 00:44:25,735
[paul_tyler]: observation i love

1216
00:44:25,685 –> 00:44:25,706
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1217
00:44:25,815 –> 00:44:29,281
[paul_tyler]: your concept of income under management however

1218
00:44:29,516 –> 00:44:29,819
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1219
00:44:29,521 –> 00:44:33,307
[paul_tyler]: man my head starts to spend because
think of any one of our products g

1220
00:44:33,488 –> 00:44:33,688
[paul_tyler]: is that

1221
00:44:33,656 –> 00:44:34,796
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1222
00:44:33,708 –> 00:44:38,196
[paul_tyler]: the you know i’m not expecting is
that the guaranteed income off of the product

1223
00:44:38,376 –> 00:44:39,818
[paul_tyler]: is this the potential

1224
00:44:39,875 –> 00:44:40,019
[michelle_richter]: yeah

1225
00:44:39,899 –> 00:44:41,942
[paul_tyler]: income based on you mark you know

1226
00:44:41,985 –> 00:44:43,427
[michelle_richter]: it’s the max of

1227
00:44:43,484 –> 00:44:43,747
[paul_tyler]: yea

1228
00:44:44,008 –> 00:44:52,682
[michelle_richter]: the guaranteed benefit made available through the
product structure or dolls translation metric that was

1229
00:44:53,003 –> 00:44:53,784
[michelle_richter]: interim final

1230
00:44:53,756 –> 00:44:54,536
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1231
00:44:54,065 –> 00:44:54,185
[michelle_richter]: dan

1232
00:44:54,224 –> 00:44:54,508
[paul_tyler]: yeah

1233
00:44:54,425 –> 00:44:57,891
[michelle_richter]: i think became final guidance on second
quarter twenty twenty

1234
00:44:57,725 –> 00:44:57,746
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1235
00:44:57,951 –> 00:44:58,692
[michelle_richter]: two statements

1236
00:44:58,346 –> 00:44:58,879
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

1237
00:44:59,253 –> 00:44:59,414
[michelle_richter]: that

1238
00:44:59,426 –> 00:44:59,749
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1239
00:44:59,554 –> 00:45:01,337
[michelle_richter]: translated assets to income

1240
00:45:01,706 –> 00:45:02,813
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1241
00:45:01,838 –> 00:45:04,402
[michelle_richter]: that would be the appropriate method by
which to

1242
00:45:04,405 –> 00:45:04,526
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1243
00:45:04,502 –> 00:45:05,023
[michelle_richter]: accomplish

1244
00:45:04,826 –> 00:45:05,212
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1245
00:45:05,564 –> 00:45:06,206
[michelle_richter]: a building base

1246
00:45:06,146 –> 00:45:06,711
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1247
00:45:06,306 –> 00:45:07,492
[michelle_richter]: where income under management

1248
00:45:09,566 –> 00:45:09,892
[paul_tyler]: thank you

1249
00:45:12,490 –> 00:45:12,591
[michelle_richter]: so

1250
00:45:12,566 –> 00:45:12,707
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

1251
00:45:13,415 –> 00:45:17,582
[michelle_richter]: it should be considered in my view
and in particular it should be considered because

1252
00:45:17,822 –> 00:45:21,909
[michelle_richter]: aria has retirement income in the name
is

1253
00:45:21,837 –> 00:45:21,857
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1254
00:45:22,009 –> 00:45:23,431
[michelle_richter]: not about maximization

1255
00:45:23,045 –> 00:45:23,066
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1256
00:45:23,491 –> 00:45:24,092
[michelle_richter]: of assets

1257
00:45:23,734 –> 00:45:24,326
[ramsey_d_smith]: hm

1258
00:45:24,373 –> 00:45:25,535
[michelle_richter]: everybody complain is

1259
00:45:25,616 –> 00:45:25,778
[ramsey_d_smith]: ye

1260
00:45:25,635 –> 00:45:29,842
[michelle_richter]: that d c is focused exclusively on
acid accumulation

1261
00:45:29,987 –> 00:45:30,027
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1262
00:45:30,343 –> 00:45:35,351
[michelle_richter]: and you want to know why it’s
because of the method by which compensation occurs

1263
00:45:35,852 –> 00:45:36,092
[michelle_richter]: right

1264
00:45:35,936 –> 00:45:36,716
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1265
00:45:36,934 –> 00:45:41,274
[michelle_richter]: like it always is right everywhere in
humanity

1266
00:45:41,285 –> 00:45:41,306
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1267
00:45:41,536 –> 00:45:42,261
[michelle_richter]: that’s the truth

1268
00:45:43,085 –> 00:45:43,106
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1269
00:45:43,425 –> 00:45:47,270
[michelle_richter]: so you know if we want something
different and we continue to do the same

1270
00:45:47,350 –> 00:45:52,367
[michelle_richter]: thing we experience the definition of crazy
so

1271
00:45:52,376 –> 00:45:52,597
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1272
00:45:52,567 –> 00:45:55,519
[michelle_richter]: in order to do to accomplish something
different we must do

1273
00:45:55,526 –> 00:45:56,216
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1274
00:45:55,639 –> 00:45:56,322
[michelle_richter]: something different

1275
00:45:57,575 –> 00:45:57,596
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1276
00:45:59,065 –> 00:46:03,672
[michelle_richter]: my third assertion is that the impossibility
of intellectual property

1277
00:46:03,716 –> 00:46:03,978
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1278
00:46:03,772 –> 00:46:10,504
[michelle_richter]: having value in my field is an
offense about which utter outrage is merited it

1279
00:46:10,564 –> 00:46:10,624
[michelle_richter]: is

1280
00:46:10,646 –> 00:46:10,907
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1281
00:46:10,844 –> 00:46:18,457
[michelle_richter]: i direct affront to the very principles
of capitalism capitalism as a governing frame relies

1282
00:46:18,637 –> 00:46:25,589
[michelle_richter]: heavily upon intellectual property being protectable and
mont is able so as to encourage invention

1283
00:46:26,186 –> 00:46:26,206
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1284
00:46:26,390 –> 00:46:30,898
[michelle_richter]: thus i question why is mine the
soul field in this

1285
00:46:30,785 –> 00:46:30,806
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1286
00:46:30,998 –> 00:46:36,487
[michelle_richter]: country to which capitalism is not permitted
to apply on why are other members of

1287
00:46:36,587 –> 00:46:41,856
[michelle_richter]: my community not apoplectic about my true
words consider the

1288
00:46:41,825 –> 00:46:42,060
[ramsey_d_smith]: m ye

1289
00:46:41,936 –> 00:46:49,088
[michelle_richter]: implications that not codifying verb sales in
our domain has now that post secure annuities

1290
00:46:49,268 –> 00:46:56,480
[michelle_richter]: are permissible in plans plan advisors like
all other faduciaries in america are inherently taught

1291
00:46:56,580 –> 00:47:04,213
[michelle_richter]: that asset maximization is the only valid
lens through which financial advisement can occur yet

1292
00:47:04,494 –> 00:47:09,843
[michelle_richter]: i believe that financials occur not only
on the left side of the consumer balance

1293
00:47:09,923 –> 00:47:16,173
[michelle_richter]: sheet but all so on their income
statement their statement of net worth their cash

1294
00:47:16,253 –> 00:47:16,434
[michelle_richter]: flow

1295
00:47:16,376 –> 00:47:16,617
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1296
00:47:16,574 –> 00:47:18,918
[michelle_richter]: statement and the right side

1297
00:47:18,686 –> 00:47:18,948
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1298
00:47:19,018 –> 00:47:20,681
[michelle_richter]: of their balance sheet which

1299
00:47:20,524 –> 00:47:20,685
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1300
00:47:20,741 –> 00:47:23,225
[michelle_richter]: is where insurance plays plan

1301
00:47:23,156 –> 00:47:24,176
[ramsey_d_smith]: my

1302
00:47:23,366 –> 00:47:25,818
[michelle_richter]: advisors don’t know annuities and vice

1303
00:47:25,676 –> 00:47:26,020
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1304
00:47:25,919 –> 00:47:31,211
[michelle_richter]: versa advisors can’t even begin to imagine
why we insurance

1305
00:47:30,795 –> 00:47:30,956
[ramsey_d_smith]: right

1306
00:47:31,271 –> 00:47:36,400
[michelle_richter]: people believe our solutions have value because
they are taught to see the world through

1307
00:47:36,440 –> 00:47:38,343
[michelle_richter]: the lens of asset maximization

1308
00:47:37,916 –> 00:47:38,696
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1309
00:47:38,844 –> 00:47:44,373
[michelle_richter]: in there not taught about liability minimization
as a valid entry point to a consumer

1310
00:47:44,473 –> 00:47:45,395
[michelle_richter]: finance world view

1311
00:47:45,695 –> 00:47:45,716
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1312
00:47:46,517 –> 00:47:47,959
[michelle_richter]: annuities in d c will

1313
00:47:47,906 –> 00:47:48,152
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1314
00:47:48,140 –> 00:47:51,385
[michelle_richter]: only take off if we band together
to fight for their ace

1315
00:47:51,905 –> 00:47:51,926
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1316
00:47:52,407 –> 00:47:53,088
[michelle_richter]: actuaries

1317
00:47:52,611 –> 00:47:52,632
[ramsey_d_smith]: i

1318
00:47:53,208 –> 00:47:56,053
[michelle_richter]: for example used to have a role
in asset

1319
00:47:56,126 –> 00:47:57,236
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1320
00:47:56,133 –> 00:47:57,956
[michelle_richter]: liability matching when we

1321
00:47:57,905 –> 00:47:57,926
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1322
00:47:58,196 –> 00:48:00,941
[michelle_richter]: as a society had defined benefit pension
plans

1323
00:48:00,845 –> 00:48:00,866
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1324
00:48:01,902 –> 00:48:06,408
[michelle_richter]: but now in d c there isn’t
a natural spot for an actuary in d

1325
00:48:06,628 –> 00:48:06,648
[michelle_richter]: c

1326
00:48:06,905 –> 00:48:06,926
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1327
00:48:06,968 –> 00:48:07,348
[michelle_richter]: because

1328
00:48:07,556 –> 00:48:07,798
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1329
00:48:07,809 –> 00:48:14,235
[michelle_richter]: liability consideration is not yet required so
as to advise in d c s d

1330
00:48:14,455 –> 00:48:23,951
[michelle_richter]: c again naturally emphasizes asset maximization so
the society of actuaries nata and iri must

1331
00:48:24,192 –> 00:48:28,879
[michelle_richter]: all strongly consider the possibly ity that
my words might be true and if they

1332
00:48:28,979 –> 00:48:31,723
[michelle_richter]: feel they might be they need to
begin acting

1333
00:48:31,525 –> 00:48:31,646
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1334
00:48:31,983 –> 00:48:34,056
[michelle_richter]: yesterday representatives

1335
00:48:33,866 –> 00:48:34,049
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1336
00:48:34,196 –> 00:48:36,320
[michelle_richter]: of any of these industry organizations

1337
00:48:36,446 –> 00:48:38,385
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1338
00:48:36,560 –> 00:48:40,507
[michelle_richter]: or other organizations that can help change
the circumstances

1339
00:48:40,316 –> 00:48:40,336
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1340
00:48:40,627 –> 00:48:43,912
[michelle_richter]: i have just described are invited to
email me at

1341
00:48:44,195 –> 00:48:44,216
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1342
00:48:44,213 –> 00:48:48,300
[michelle_richter]: m rector f s at g mail
dot com and request a

1343
00:48:48,296 –> 00:48:48,660
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1344
00:48:48,380 –> 00:48:50,844
[michelle_richter]: death that further explains this perspective

1345
00:48:50,906 –> 00:48:51,213
[ramsey_d_smith]: oh

1346
00:48:51,245 –> 00:48:53,689
[michelle_richter]: and the dangers that follow logically therefrom

1347
00:48:54,418 –> 00:48:54,479
[ramsey_d_smith]: no

1348
00:48:54,590 –> 00:48:59,799
[michelle_richter]: lastly for this diatribe i hold and
and advisement should be a national field again

1349
00:48:59,979 –> 00:49:05,268
[michelle_richter]: it is not about the non placement
it is about contextual advisement it is not

1350
00:49:05,348 –> 00:49:11,478
[michelle_richter]: persacorrelated to an individual contract the way
some state insurance law allows annuity consulting to

1351
00:49:11,558 –> 00:49:13,862
[michelle_richter]: a car that does not make sense
to be

1352
00:49:13,886 –> 00:49:14,606
[ramsey_d_smith]: yeah

1353
00:49:13,942 –> 00:49:20,133
[michelle_richter]: state regulated should be policed similarly to
how r s are overseen achieving this framework

1354
00:49:20,273 –> 00:49:25,822
[michelle_richter]: is my career goal twenty seven years
remain until i begin taking social security at

1355
00:49:25,902 –> 00:49:31,932
[michelle_richter]: age seventy it thus follows logically that
i will not stop truthfully communicating my concerns

1356
00:49:32,013 –> 00:49:34,429
[michelle_richter]: on these matters for at least twenty
seven more years

1357
00:49:34,586 –> 00:49:34,606
[ramsey_d_smith]: m

1358
00:49:35,616 –> 00:49:37,915
[michelle_richter]: or until it’s solved so

1359
00:49:38,036 –> 00:49:38,359
