Subject: Hello....Again
Date Posted: Jan/11/2024 at 10:38am
Was on the forum years ago....successfully moved from a wire house to Schwab thanks to advice I received on this forum.  Haven't worked for the past 2 years (maintaining Series 7 & 66 with MQP at FINRA)  Here's my question:

Looking at working in a sales role with an RIA.  My understanding is no need for Series 7 and 66.  Maintain through the program for another 3 years?

To work as an IAR (in a sales role at an RIA), I believe you would need your 65.

Have you considered Edward Jones?

Hi,

I have...my understanding though is high fees, mutual fund portfolios proprietary, walking door to door...if it's any different, let me know.

Thank you!

You used to be able to combine the 7/66 into the requirements in lieu of the 65.  Did that change?

I thought it was 63 + 66 = 65

Nope, at least according to my state securities board at the time.

Competitive fees, build a portfolio however you want, door to door is a thing of the past unless you want to do it.  What you know about Jones from here or from knowledge of 10 years ago is wrong these days.

Mel -those were the good ole days. It’s changed to a company that is 20 years behind the times instead of the normal 10, because they are focused on being I finger my own asshole sometimes and social justice issues. It’s still a good place to start for 2 reasons. You don’t have many options and they’ll give you assets and claim you’re an experienced advisor with a lot of experience and release the hire to investment news. 

The fees are not high considering you’ll be helping the manager at the local 7-11. No one else wants him so 1.40 seems fair. There’s more flexibility on building portfolios, but it’s certainly not however you want unless you have a first year thrivent education
