Episode #12 - What the hell is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™?

In episode 12, we're talking about what the hell is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™?

David Tuzzolino, CFA, CFP® of PathBridge and Tyler Landes, CFP®, AIF® of Tandem Financial Guidance, sit down with Kyle to discuss what it means to be a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional. It can get confusing when an advisor says they're a financial advisor and a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™. It leaves you wondering, "which one are you?"

The guys break it down to make some sense of it.
