New standards were necessary for financial advisers. But Govt and regulators had little idea that their actions would create a massive vacuum where most aspiring Australian families are choosing to take no advice at all. Your feedback has been at full volume ... all in this episode.

They're the ones who can least afford to drop too much capital on ill-conceived investment strategies.
