About
Capital Markets U.com has come into being in order to meet an expressed need for financial education for American consumers that is not a marketing message or a sales pitch in disguise.
Hi, I have been in the financial advice business for over two decades and the one constant I have found is that my clients all want education to be a part of the business relationship. No one should be expected to be fully educated in areas that professionals spend their careers learning and applying. However, one should also not be ignorant and subject to either incompetent advisors or unscrupulous professional pretenders.
Capital Markets U.com Magazine is the front door to all of what Capital Markets U.com has to offer. You are encouraged to sign up for your free subscription to Capital Markets U.com Magazine. As any magazine, we cover lots of territory at a decent level and will keep you up to speed with important news that affects your personal financial well being.
In addition to the magazine, Capital Markets U.com publishes other materials, the first of which is Forewarned is Forearmed: How to make an annuity purchase (or not) that you will never regret! by Charles L. Stanley. This is initially available as an E-Book. Other publications are planned over the next several months.
There are two overall goals of Capital Markets U.com:
- Consumer financial success through education, and
- Consumer protection through education.
Consequently, some of our materials will be devoted to how to win the financial “game” (a most serious game indeed) while other materials will sound the alarm and hopefully provide an important “heads up” for our readers that will help steer them clear of the many financial mind fields in our world.
IMPORTANT LEGAL DISCLOSURE
Let me be very clear about this, Capital Markets U.com is not an investment advisory firm and does not give personal financial advice. Do not rely on the content in the publications of Capital Markets U.com without also consulting a professional before implementation. Capital Markets U.com is purely a provider of educational material deemed appropriate for public consumption.
