The financial planning industry is constantly in flux and changing. Though Kitces.com prides itself on being a leader in helping to guide advisors through those changes, there will always be questions we either haven’t yet answered or haven’t done so in some time. Or, maybe you just want to get Michael and other industry expert’s perspective on the unique challenges and opportunities you face with your own practice. For this reason, we created Monthly Office Hours to give our Premier Members more direct and exclusive access to Michael and his team. Each month, Michael and other industry leading experts will spend an hour answering questions submitted and voted on by those in our Premier Membership community.Access to Exclusive Kitces CFP Ethics CE
