Financial advisors are constantly mingling with wealthy people.

They are clients. Perhaps they are rich relatives.

They are fellow members at a country club or attendees at a charity gala.

They sit alongside you in a pew or are members at the same nonprofit.

Here are some expressions to avoid.

Try not to say things that make you think “I wish I hadn’t said that” the morning after you did.
