A friend asked if I wanted to get together with someone from Northwestern Mutual for financial advice/etc.
Naturally, I was amused, as a Mustachian Personal Finance Extraordinaire™, since I'd bet most of my net worth I'm far more versed in personal finance than whoever the Northwestern Mutual person is. I still might get together if it's convenient anyways, since I might learn something, though.
But it made me think, is NW the company that pushes whole life? I obviously wouldn't buy this as a millennial with no kids but I was wondering if I should worry about my friend who is probably not as equipped to make informed decisions about such a thing. Not sure if I should care about them buying it or not.
Incidentally I am discussing with a shared mutual friend about leading an FPU class, so I actually would have some level of credibility if I were to talk with my friend.
