Feedback:
1. Start conversation with how they’re doing or their family or leading into the holiday weekend
2. Ask risk tolerance by using dollars but not percent cause people understand how much better
3. 100-age is how many percentages equity you should keep; Asset allocation is relevant to age
4. Don’t mislead people about risk
5. Sit tight because the asset quality is there and you’re protected structurally
6. Have a heart to heart with your client
7. Quarterly meeting with clients usually, but more frequently in difficult years
