Chapter 1: Ideal Advisor + Ideal Client = Ideal Relationship

Chapter 2:  FORM and Return on Life

Chapter 3: The WealthTrac FORMula™

Chapter 3 introduces the WealthTrac FORMula, in detail and describes the comprehensive process that is designed to provide clients with a panoramic perspective on their financial plan.

Chapter 4: The Power of Collaboration

The chapter stresses the need for the advisor to understand and appreciate how to help the client chart their course to financial success as well as preserving that same success.
