Douglas Stone is a wealth management advisor who left his gig at a major wirehouse just a few years in once he realized that his industry wasn't helping its customers. He became an independent advisor and has been committed to helping clients (especially business owners) make the best financial decisions ever since.

In his bestselling book, Navigate the Investment Jungle: Seven Common Financial Traps and How to Sidestep Them, Douglas is teaching the common financial mistakes he's seen too many clients make.

Ex: Many folks think that because they have a financial advisor and look over the reports that they're in good shape, but Douglas says that's a huge trap!
