Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Bolting the Big Firm (but were afraid to ask)

Under intense pressure from their corporate masters to sell products that clients may not need, many financial advisors desperately want to slip the golden handcuffs and become independent agents. However, they lack the initiative, the plan or the gumption to break away from the mothership, and so they continue to toil in psychic pain.

Carmine Corino and Daren Blonski know how they feel and have devised the blueprint for those who want to make the leap. Born of their own hard-earned experience, the self-deprecating duo lays out the path, identifies the landmines, offers shark repellant and prepares advisors for the emotional rollercoaster that lies ahead.

Part yogis, part older brothers, part wise-cracking best buddies, Corino and Blonski recount their own successes and failures, lessons learned and things they wished they'd done, all served with a soupcon of silly, because, as Ben and Jerry said, "If it's not fun, why do it?"

Among the unexpected words of wisdom: "First, know yourself;" "Get the blessing of your spouse or it will be hell;" "Find an outlet for the inevitable stress;" "Keep your mouth shut beforehand;" and "Expect to be surprised who your friends are." Armed with their tried-and-true formula, any advisor in the country can extricate themselves from the vice grip of the big financial services company.

If you're even contemplating making a move, this book is a must-read. It will save you a lot of trouble... and make you laugh along the way.

i’ve been wanting this shelf for quite some time and finally decided I’m doing it. I’m absolutely completely satisfied with the size the quality of the wood and the paint job. It’s made very well. I have to say I was surprised at how nicely sanded it was and ready to hang.

Easy install
Just installed in our bathroom. Feels solid. We have a potted plant on it now. You will want a drill bit extender to clear the shelf. I use the flexible type. Otherwise you won’t be able to get the screws in at a 90 degree angle.

Very nice, well made.
The nine-inch oak shelf is well made, and is 45 degrees. The wall where I planned to install it was not, and I suspect this is the problem some of the reviews saying the shelf was not made at 45 degrees. In my case, we removed wood a bit at a time until we achieved a good fit. We did receive all of the hardware, but beware. The plastic straight insert anchors do not snug up with the supplied screws. However we used the supplied plastic toggles with better results. The hardware is why I rate this 4 stars. Otherwise, it is a nice piece, and well worth the price.
