New Business Paradigms: Conscious Commentary on Business and Society

Academy President Rinaldo Brutoco will be joined by Howard Smith, a Wealth Advisor and Estate Planning Consultant. They will discuss:

•Why healthcare reform is necessary to make U.S. manufacturers competitive internationally, and how success or failure of reform efforts will affect your personal finances now and for the rest of your life;

•Why the United States is at a turning point that requires the President to become a bold leader and informed citizens to become engaged patriots; and

•How you can find a way to bring your body and soul to work, while business leaders and consumers begin to make business a tool for social transformation.

Rinaldo and Howard will also conduct a Lightning Round, a series of quick questions and answers about various asset classes, with particular emphasis on oil prices; ways to address existing currency trends’ implications for your wallet; and ways you can profit from the upcoming inflation and avoid its pitfalls using gold, commodity tracking indexes, and the like.
