"Why Your Wealth Manager Is Robbing You Blind". The Book That Could Shatter the Wealth Management Industry

 

A bombshell new book is set to shake the foundations of the wealth management
industry and expose an uncomfortable truth: most investors are paying high
fees for underperformance - and have been for decades.

In Why Your Wealth Manager Is Robbing You Blind
(https://www.amazon.com/Your-Wealth-Manager-Robbing-Blind-ebook/dp/B0FTMZMQDW/)
, author Lane Clark, a veteran trader with over 25 years' experience in
financial markets and the founder of disruptive investment platform TPP, pulls
back the curtain on an industry that has profited handsomely while failing the
very people it's meant to serve.

This isn't another dry textbook on investing. It's a punch-in-the-face exposé
of how the wealth management model really works - and why it so rarely works
for investors.

A System Built to Reward Itself - Even When You Lose

At the heart of Clark's book is a brutal truth that most investors never hear:
80% of wealth managers underperform their benchmarks, yet they still charge
full fees, still get paid, and still profit even when their clients lose
money.

For decades, the traditional wealth model has hidden behind jargon, complexity
and glossy brochures while quietly eroding investor returns through layers of
fees, kickbacks, and closet indexing. Investors have been conditioned to
accept underperformance as normal - even inevitable.

Clark disagrees.

"If a wealth manager can't beat a basic index tracker, why are they charging
premium fees?" Clark asks. "It's like paying a Michelin-starred chef to
microwave your dinner. It's insulting, and it's time investors stopped
accepting it."

A Movement to Empower Investors

This book is more than just a critique. It's a rallying cry, and a practical
playbook, for investors to fight back.

Drawing on decades of first-hand market experience, Clark explains in clear,
jargon-free language exactly how the wealth management industry operates, why
it continues to underperform, and most importantly, what investors can do
about it.

From exposing the hidden drag of compounding fees, to showing how technology
and smarter portfolio construction can add meaningful performance every year,
Why Your Wealth Manager Is Robbing You Blind arms readers with the knowledge
and tools to take control of their wealth.

The message is simple but powerful: investors don't need to accept the old
model anymore.

Proof It Works: The TPP Revolution

Unlike many critics of the industry, Clark doesn't just talk theory, he's
built a real-world alternative that proves investors can do better.

Through TPP, a technology-driven investment platform Clark founded to
challenge the status quo, clients are already seeing the results of a
radically different approach. TPP's benchmark-beating strategies, including
its "Long or Flat" and hybrid portfolios, have consistently outperformed
traditional wealth managers without the bloated fees or outdated structures.

The platform operates on a simple but revolutionary principle: TPP only wins
when the investor wins. With no ongoing management fees and performance-based
charging, the incentives are finally aligned.

It's an approach that's resonating. TPP was recently named Best Subscription
Investment Platform UK 2025 by Wealth & Finance International, and its
growing client base is proof that investors are hungry for change.

"This isn't just about building a business," Clark says. "It's about building
a movement. The days of investors paying 1.5% a year for 0.8% returns are
numbered."

A Wake-Up Call to the Industry

The implications of this book stretch far beyond individual investors. If its
message gains traction, and all signs suggest it will, it could force an
industry-wide reckoning.

Wealth managers and financial advisers who have long relied on opacity,
inertia and reputation may find themselves under unprecedented pressure to
justify their fees and performance. Regulators and policymakers could face new
scrutiny over whether investors are truly being protected. And new generations
of investors, armed with knowledge and better options, may simply walk away
from the old model altogether.

Clark believes the shift is already underway:

"We're at a tipping point. Technology, transparency and data have changed
what's possible. Investors are waking up to the fact they've been overpaying
for underperformance, and once they know, they don't go back."

For Every Investor Who's Ever Asked "Is This All There Is?"

Why Your Wealth Manager Is Robbing You Blind speaks directly to a growing
frustration among investors: that despite rising markets and decades of
promises, their wealth hasn't grown as it should have.

It answers the questions too few investors ask, and too many wealth managers
avoid:

●    Why does my portfolio lag behind the index?

●    Where do all these fees actually go?

●    Are my adviser's incentives aligned with mine?

●    And most importantly: how can I do better?

Clark doesn't just provide the answers, he gives readers a roadmap to a more
efficient, transparent and performance-focused way of investing.

Early Buzz and Anticipation

Even before launch, Why Your Wealth Manager Is Robbing You Blind is generating
significant anticipation. Early readers have described it as "the book the
wealth industry hoped would never be written" and "a wake-up call for anyone
serious about their money."

Influencers, journalists and industry insiders are already requesting copies,
and Clark is confident the book will become an Amazon bestseller upon release.
