New Rules for Financial Advisers

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2016/04/06/new-rules-financial-advisers-prohibit-conflicts-interest/82686914/

Financial advisers will be required to recommend investments that are in their clients' best interests — and not just the ones that yield the biggest commissions —under a long-awaited regulation being rolled out by the Obama administration Wednesday.
The Labor Department estimates that its so-called "fiduciary rule" could save American investors more than $17 billion as financial advisers can no longer steer customers toward products with higher fees and lower returns. Under current law, financial advisers are required only to recommend suitable investments.

I am not one to consult with advisors on how or where I should put my money, after all its my money if I can't control it I don't deserve it.
