Do you get to admire what you have created?

The advice, the plan, the tax strategy or the accounts you build?

The difference between the artisan and the lowly financial worker is purely that the artisan gets to have pride in what they have created.

That wonderful feeling, the creative act of building something that has integrity, something that works beautifully; this is not something workers in a “production line” or purely system-based financial firm will ever get to enjoy.
