I attended Stephen Jones breakfast chat the grand Hyatt on Thursday
To my amazement there was only a few advisers who got up and asked questions of Fasea and the ministers view of the state of affairs in the industry
I must say I was impressed with his humble and positive responses to all sections of the groups in the room
I must congratulate Leigh Anoos who courageously spoke about her failing the Fasea exam.It’s amazing isn’t it where someone who has a Masters in FP cannot pass this exam
What it tells me that the exam has been a joke and not even remotely what FP is about
I have also failed this exam so many times (I have been in the industry over45 years in my advice business yet we have kids coming in and passing this exam who have never advised-
Fasea was and us now finished and fully broken
Good riddance-hoping that there. Will be changes soon
