This week\u2019s guest is \xa0Dr. Nathan Harness, \xa0the TD Ameritrade Director of Financial Planning at Texas A&M University. I\u2019m excited to talk with\xa0Nathan about the past, present and future of financial planning. It is\xa0exciting to have an impact on the future of our profession and I hope young professionals continue moving our profession forward towards what it should be.\nWhen we as practitioners partner with academia we can help each other build a stronger profession and ultimately help provide better outcomes for our clients.\n\n\u201cIf students can\u2019t see that this is an opportunity for them then they are never going to be a part of it.\u201d\n\xa0\n40 Under 40 2016: Nathan Harness \u2013 InvestmentNews\nCertified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc.\nTexas Tech University Financial Planning Academy\nAbout Michael E.
