Gold Alert: Extraordinary Upside in One Stock (Not a Miner)

Gold has hit all-time highs, breaking $3,600 an ounce - but history shows it could be on the verge of its biggest bull run in over half a century... triggered by a likely major event, eerily similar to what happened in the 1970s. (It's NOT inflation or anything you're likely expecting.) Now, a top analyst says you can capture ALL of the upside without touching a risky miner or a boring exchange-traded fund. He sees extraordinary potential gains long term with very little risk.

Set Your Advisory Business Up For Success In 2025

The advisory landscape is undergoing a fundamental transformation that demands immediate action from financial advisors.

While firms like Creative Planning have achieved remarkable $16 billion valuations, traditional business models face mounting challenges that require strategic adaptation, Financial Advisor Magazine argues in a new article.

Client retention, long considered a strength of advisory firms, may be more precarious than assumed. Research from CEG Insights and J.D. Power suggests that current retention rates stem more from bull market conditions and client inertia than genuine loyalty. This vulnerability is compounded by the impending generational wealth transfer, with 41% of advisors viewing inheritance-related asset shifts as an existential threat.

Forward-thinking advisors must pivot toward serving younger, high-earning clients in their 30s who seek fundamentally different services. These emerging affluent clients require guidance on compensation negotiations, stock options, debt management, and business development. While potentially less profitable initially, establishing relationships with this demographic now positions advisors for substantial recurring revenue growth in the coming decades.

The market is evolving toward specialized service models based on client net worth and specific needs. Ultra-affluent clients ($25M+) demand comprehensive family office services, while the “merely affluent” ($5M-$25M) prefer à la carte offerings. Successful firms will need to choose their focus area, whether it’s building 401(k) platforms with wealth management capabilities, specializing in specific professions, or serving the broader middle class.

Healthcare planning has emerged as a critical service area, with 68% of ultra-high-net-worth investors identifying it as a primary concern. Advisors must forge strategic partnerships with healthcare professionals to deliver concierge medicine services. Additionally, entrepreneurial clients increasingly seek advisors who can assist not just with wealth management but wealth creation, requiring expertise in startup management, business valuation, and succession planning.

The key message for advisors is clear: the era of being all things to all people is ending. Success in 2035 and beyond will require selecting a specific focus area, developing deep expertise, and delivering demonstrably superior value in that niche. Advisors must begin this transformation now to remain relevant and competitive in the evolving advisory landscape.
