Quotes
[04:23] - "The UMH (Unified Managed Household) is what investors want and need. The UMH premise is simple, but the execution is hard." ~ Jack Sharry
[12:45] - "Clients have given up on beating the market. They learned the hard way that buying high and selling low doesn't work. Now, it's about how much they keep. They're concerned about protecting what they've built." ~ Jack Sharry
[14:26] - "Taxes are the single biggest cost investors incur, and they're complicated. The biggest impact of improving outcomes comes from minimizing taxes. The more accounts you manage tax efficiently, the better the client's results—that's tax alpha." ~ Jack Sharry
[29:27] - "AI leads to an easy button for financial advisors. It will optimize their clients' portfolios to address risk, minimize their taxes, and optimize their retirement income, combined with social security. It will coordinate with their workplace retirement accounts and all their other accounts and holdings." ~ Jack Sharry
