Jack Waymire spent 28 years in the financial service industry.
For 21 of those years he was the president of a Registered Investment Advisory firm. He left the financial service industry in 2004 to promote a book he wrote titled Who's Watching Your Money? The 17 Paladin Principles for Selecting a Financial Advisor. Later that year he launched a website www.PaladinRegistry.com that used the principles in the book to pre-screen financial planners, investment advisors, and money managers for investors who used their services.
In 2008 he also founded www.InvestorWatchdog.com, a website that gathers data from financial advisors and produces reports that investors use to make informed decisions when they select financial advisors. Additional reports on the Watchdog website also enable investors to monitor current advisors for performance, risk, and expense. Waymire is a columnist for Worth magazine, frequently quoted in the media, and a regular contributor to major blog sites.
