Every so often our Financial Planning clients shock us with a desire for things which seem impossible.

I'm excited by recent academic studies that suggest we can access more happiness in life by making more money or increasing our social circles as we age.

As Financial Planners, we have been well trained to help our clients navigate the so-called 'black swan' events of our time. Here I want to address the life planning issues impacted by these events that might be less familiar. 

Financial Planning Today editor Kevin O'Donnell recently caught up with Life Planning guru George Kinder, one of the world's best known advocates for Financial Planning, about his new book, his views on the profession in 2022 and how he sees the long-term impact of Covid-19 on the way Financial Planners work.
