What would a IFA recommend?

What exactly is that you contribute to the British econony to justify that level of commission?
At least I contribute and not a waster like you.
Previously you said you didn't take on salesmen without a track record of earning at least £100K.
No I didnt. That was a lie you made up by taking some comments I made and then replacing certain words and spinning them out of context.
Your repeated lies and unfounded attacks led to you getting banned on this board before. You don't seem to have learnt anything from that and no doubt heading that way again.
There are enough people here with the sense to see that you are not interested in discussion and just re-registered to keep up the personal attacks.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0 -
What makes you think I got banned? Would you like me to be banned?
Yes you did say exactly that. You've certainly got some brass neck.
And as for personal attacks, what are the "Daily Mail" and "waster" jibes about? You constant use personal abuse. What happens to your clients when they complain?
Yes there are honest IFAs out there Dunston but you aren't one of them. People should read your old posts very carefully.
Firstly I have reported this post as defamatory and libelous.
Secondly I have copied and saved this posting for future use if so required by the aggrieved person (Dunstonh) if the moderators/admin remove it which is highly likely.
Thirdly a colleague of mine was recently awarded £50k in damages for internet libel where he was accused of being dishonest on an internet forum, this was a summary judgement at county court with lawyers fees of £30k added on top. Be very, very careful of accusing professional people of being dishonest in writing. Even though its on the internet, you are legally responsible for posting highly libelous comments.

go back and read the thread and tell me what argument ive lost? I know what type of IFA ( financial planner) I am . I also know what a typical IFA is.
I didnt accuse you, I suggested you stop. If you are not a Mail reader for the sake of this thread be honest and tell us your favoured rag.0 -

Why on earth should I stop ?! It's a free discussion forum, and so long as I do not breach the perfectly sensible rules about abuse etc then I can go on arguing a point as long as I choose.
I have no hesitation in revealing that I am an "unashamed" Daily Telegraph reader. And if that leads to hoots of derision from the 'liberal' faction, then it says as much about them as it does about me (likewise regarding Daily Mail readers incidentally).
I was really responding to the rather naive and obvious little intended trap that someone posted earlier: "Have you ever consulted an IFA ?" Answer "No." "Oh so you don't know anything about it then." To say that someone who has not actually consulted an IFA is not entitled to comment about them is like saying that someone cannot comment on sentencing policy unless they have been up in court, or that someone cannot comment on NHS cancer treatment and care unless they have had the grave misfortune to contract the disease. Essentially a silly non-argument. Had I said that I had in fact consulted an IFA and was not impressed by the advice given and the service provided then no doubt the retort would have been along the lines of, "Ah well you were not bright and knowledgable enough understand the realities of the markets, and the fact that investments go up and down, nor you did not take heed of the warnings and caveats that the IFA must have given you." An answer for everything; a solution to nothing.No-one would remember the Good Samaritan if he'd only had good intentions. He had money as well.
The problem with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money.

You were making disparaging comments about IFAs. Yet you have no experience of one. Your knowledge seems to be based mostly from the media and we all know how flawed that is.Had I said that I had in fact consulted an IFA and was not impressed by the advice given .....
Then you would have good grounds to make your opinion as its based on a factual event.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0
