I did a search and couldn't find it here, but would be curious on thoughts from the group ... anybody here do financial planning professionally or for fun?  I have a financial advisor/fiduciary but they've had some staff changes of late and so since I'm going to have to rebuild my relationship...

(Not racism, but don't think we have a separate thread for antisemitism - so instead of starting a new thread ...) Yeezy: "“I can say antisemitic things and Adidas can’t drop me. Now what?” Addidas, 5 days after his comment:  "ADDIDAS TERMINATES PARTNERSHIP WITH YEEZY EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY"...
