"Greg Friedman brings a unique perspective to the business of financial advice. Not only is he a successful advisor, but he is a successful business owner who has experienced most every phase in a financial advisory firm′s life cycle, from birth to growth to mergers and acquisitions, while at the same time building a leading technology company. He shares his learned wisdom in his current book. You would be wise to add it to your library."
