The Five Star Wealth Manager Award is a Joke!

Each year, Five Star Professional dot com grant Five Star awards to wealth managers/investment professionals. These award recipients must meet 10 eligibility criteria but these criteria are NOT true achievements of any kind (unless you consider not being arrested as an achievement).
These criteria are deceptive because they are a "low hurdle and measures the wrong things".
And on their website disclaimer: "The award methodology DOES NOT evaluate the quality of services provided."

When you are looking for a financial adviser to manage your hard earned money and life savings, wouldn't you think "Quality of Services" matter?! Quality of Service is a measure of one's integrity, honesty, true professionalism and embracing the fiduciary oath for his or her clients.

The Five Star award is a marketing ploy, their end goal is basically to sell advertising to the "winner".
And the end goal for the recipient/winner is basically self-promotion to gain unsuspecting clients.
In other words, these 2 cons are working together to fool the public.
You can be rude, greedy (which Pearl is) and incompetent - and still be a 5-Star Professional Winner!

This award is pathetic and so is Pearl Lee!
