Richard B. Wagner , JD, CFP® has been a thought leader in the financial planning world for twenty-five years. His article To Think…Like a CFP continues to serve as the financial planning profession’s seminal statement of vision and potential. After years of service to the profession, including a year as national ICFP president in 1992-93, he was awarded the prestigious FPA’s P. Kemp Fain Jr. Award in 2003. This award recognizes an individual member of the Financial Planning Association “who has made outstanding contributions to the financial planning profession in the areas of service to professional activities, society, academia and/or government and upholds FPA’s core values of integrity, competence, relationships and stewardship.” “Dick’s pioneering spirit in the field of financial planning helped the profession grow in recognition and appeal to the public,” said [then] FPA President David Yeske, CFP®. “He was instrumental in the evolution of personal finance and the growing focus on the psychology of money.”
