I started working at Prudential in 1979, in 1985 my partner and I moved to Prudential Securities. I was a Senior Estate Planning Consultant and worked with about 2000 Financial Advisers clients. Our goal was to show any client how to pay Zero Tax at death. I taught legal concepts, charitable giving strategies, and insurance planning concepts to the FA's and their clients.

This was the same job that I had a Prudential Securities, They merged and the job did not change.
