                     REQUEST FOR DISCUSSION (RFD)
              moderated group misc.invest.financial-plan

This is a formal Request For Discussion (RFD) for the creation of a
world-wide Usenet newsgroup "misc.invest.financial-plan".
This is not a Call for Votes (CFV); you cannot vote at this time.
Procedural details are below.

RATIONALE: misc.invest.financial-plan

There are presently no newsgroups dedicated to the subject of
financial planning, which integrates the topics of taxation,saving &
investing, estate planning, retirement planning and insurance.
Although very good discussion groups exist for most of these
topics, there is no integration between them and the professionals
involved.  Since these topics are interrelated, by discussing them all
in one newsgroup the readers can ask integrated questions without
seeming to be out of topic or in the wrong group.

The purpose of this group will be to provide a forum where
interested parties can exchange ideas, opinions, views and
information as it relates to financial planning.

This group is not intended to replace the misc.tax, misc.legal,
misc.industry.insurance, and the misc.invest.* newsgroups, but to
complement them.  Extensive discussion on any one of the above
topics should continue to be limited to the specialty newsgroup
involved.

The group will be moderated, mostly to prevent
advertising of financial services and financial products.
Unfortunately, Usenet has become a hot bed for "get rich quick"
schemes, tax protester propaganda and other advertising.  Since
there are many topics covered in this newsgroup, I believe that the
"quality" of the postings should be maintained.

CHARTER: misc.invest.financial-plan

1. The newsgroup "misc.invest.financial-plan" is intended to
provide for well-tempered discussions, including, but not limited to,
the interrelated topics listed below:

Financial Planning:
-The financial planning process
-The role of the financial planner
-Financial statements
-Development, implementation and review of financial plans

Taxation:
- Tax planning and strategies
- Current and proposed developments in tax law
- Taxation as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan

Saving & Investing:
-Budgetary,savings, credit and debt planning
- Time value of money
-Investment planning
-General discussion of investment alternatives
-Investment risk
-Investment timing
-Asset allocation
-Fundamental & technical analysis
-Savings and investing as related to a comprehensive financial plan

Insurance Planning:
-Life insurance
-Health insurance
-Homeowner's insurance
-Automobile insurance
-Liability insurance
-Disability insurance
-Insurance as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan

Retirement Planning:
-Pension plans
-Profit sharing plans
-IRAs
-Retirement income needs
-Mentally preparing for retirement
-Retirement planning as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan

Estate Planning:
-Wills and letters of instruction
-Types of property ownership
-Trust fundamentals
-Estate taxation
-Estate preservation and distribution
-Estate planning as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan

2. Queries and replies about the above topics are welcome, so long
as it is clear that specific legal advice is not being provided.

3. Attorneys, accountants, investment counselors, insurance
professionals, financial planning professionals, and other interested
persons would have a forum to discuss their interrelated problems
and experiences.

4. General discussion concerning the different types of investments
would be welcome, however recommendations of specific stocks or
investments should not be allowed.  This group could easily be
cluttered with "get rich quick" schemes, and there are many other
forums designed for this purpose.

5. Discussions regarding existing or proposed legislation relevant to this
newsgroup would be welcome.

6. Solicitations, especially for specific financial products or services,
would not be welcome.

7. To prevent possible overcrowding, *extensive* discussion in any
*one* topic of tax, law, investing and insurance should be limited
to the specialty newsgroup involved.

The ordering above is for convenience only and does not reflect a
preference ordering among the various topics.

The Role of the Moderator
-------------------------------------
8. Although no legal relationships are created by this document, the
moderator is expected to act as if he or she were in a fiduciary
relationship with the participants of this newsgroup.

9.The moderator will not permit posts offering professional or other
advice, services or products for remuneration.

10. The moderator will use his or her discretion to decide when
discussions drift too far from the topics above, or if a participant
would further benefit from posting in a specialty newsgroup, such
as misc.taxes or misc.legal.   The moderator would request
voluntary compliance before taking such actions and will post a
notice notifying the group of any such actions.

11. The moderator is encouraged to return posts to senders,
perhaps with the suggestion of a more appropriate newsgroup, if
the posts are those that he or she believes more properly belong in
another newsgroup.

12. The moderator will have the discretion to reject posts
containing assertions about the current state of tax or other law
which he or she believes are plainly inaccurate.  Any failure of the
moderator to exercise this discretion does not signify the
moderator's agreement with or approval of the post.

13. A committee of professionals will be established by the
moderator to act as an appeals committee to consider any appeals
of the moderator's rulings.  Appeals should be directed to the
moderator who will pass them on to the reviewing committee.

Moderator Selection and Replacement
----------------------------------------------------

14. A moderator serves until he or she resigns. A moderator may
resign at any time. A moderator is requested to give the group
adequate notice in order to insure an orderly transition.

15. A moderator may designate a back-up moderator during vacation
periods, as long as the group is given adequate notice.

16. A sole moderator may appoint one or more co-moderators.
Moderators may share their duties in any manner mutually
acceptable.  In the event that the group has multiple moderators, all
references to the sole moderator in the above paragraphs shall apply
to all of the moderators, collectively, if the context permits.

17. A resigning moderator, whether the sole moderator or co-
moderator, may select his or her successor.  Moderators are
requested to consider the opinions of readers of the group when
choosing their successors.  A resigning co-moderator may, with the
unanimous consent of the other moderators, choose not to appoint
a successor.

END CHARTER.

Consultant, with 16 years of practice experience.  My resume can be

IMPORTANT VOTING PROCEDURE NOTES:

Standard Guidelines for voting apply.  Only one vote per person, no
more than one vote per account.  Votes must be mailed directly from
the voter to the votetaker.  Anonymous, forwarded, or proxy votes
are not valid.  Votes mailed by WWW/HTML/CGI forms are considered
to be anonymous votes.

Vote counting is automated.  Failure to follow these directions may
mean that your vote does not get counted.  If you do not receive an
acknowledgment of your vote within three days, contact the votetaker
about the problem.  It's your responsibility to make sure your vote
is registered correctly.  Duplicate votes are resolved in favor of
the most recent valid vote.  Names, addresses, and votes of all voters
will be published in the final voting results post.

DO NOT redistribute this CFV in any manner whatsoever.  The purpose of
a Usenet vote is to determine the genuine interest of persons who would
read a proposed newsgroup.  Soliciting votes from disinterested parties
defeats this purpose.  Only the votetaker, the news.announce.newgroups
moderator, and the proponent (if specifically authorized by the votetaker)
are permitted to distribute copies of this CFV.

Distribution of pre-marked or otherwise modified copies of this CFV is
generally considered voting fraud and should be reported immediately to
the votetaker or the UVV .  In cases where voting fraud
is determined to have occurred, it is standard operating procedure to
delete ALL votes submitted by the violator.  When in doubt, ask the
votetaker.

DISTRIBUTION:

The only official sources for copies of this CFV are the locations listed
below and the votetaker's e-mail CFV server which can be reached at
.

                      LAST CALL FOR VOTES (of 2)
              moderated group misc.invest.financial-plan

Newsgroups line:
misc.invest.financial-plan	Financial planning in general. (Moderated)

Votes must be received by 23:59:59 UTC, 14 Oct 1996.

This vote is being conducted by a neutral third party.  Questions about
the proposed group should be directed to the proponent.

Proponent: Susan Wasserman 
Mentor: Jonathan Grobe 
Votetaker: Bill Aten 

RATIONALE: misc.invest.financial-plan

There are presently no newsgroups dedicated to the subject of
financial planning, which integrates the topics of taxation, saving &
investing, estate planning, retirement planning and insurance.
Although very good discussion groups exist for most of these
topics, there is no integration between them and the professionals
involved.  Since these topics are interrelated, by discussing them all
in one newsgroup the readers can ask integrated questions without
seeming to be out of topic or in the wrong group.

The purpose of this group will be to provide a forum where
interested parties can exchange ideas, opinions, views and
information as it relates to financial planning.

This group is not intended to replace the misc.tax, misc.legal,
misc.industry.insurance, and the misc.invest.* newsgroups, but to
complement them.  Extensive discussion on any one of the above
topics should continue to be limited to the specialty newsgroup
involved.

The group will be moderated, mostly to prevent advertising of
financial services and financial products.  Unfortunately, Usenet has
become a hot bed for "get rich quick" schemes, tax protester propaganda
and other advertising.  Since there are many topics covered in this
newsgroup, I believe that the "quality" of the postings should be
maintained.

CHARTER: misc.invest.financial-plan

1. The newsgroup "misc.invest.financial-plan" is intended to
provide for well-tempered discussions, including, but not limited to,
the interrelated topics listed below:

  FINANCIAL PLANNING
   - The financial planning process
   - The role of the financial planner
   - Financial statements
   - Development, implementation and review of financial plans
   - Software tools for planning
  TAXATION
   - Tax planning and strategies
   - Current and proposed developments in tax law
   - Taxation as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan
  SAVING & INVESTING
   - Budgetary,savings, credit and debt planning
   - Time value of money
   - Investment planning
   - General discussion of investment alternatives
   - Investment risk
   - Investment timing
   - Asset allocation
   - Fundamental & technical analysis
   - Savings and investing as related to a comprehensive financial plan
  INSURANCE PLANNING
   - Life insurance
   - Health insurance
   - Homeowner's insurance
   - Automobile insurance
   - Liability insurance
   - Disability insurance
   - Insurance as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan
  RETIREMENT PLANNING
   - Pension plans
   - Profit sharing plans
   - IRAs
   - Retirement income needs
   - Mentally preparing for retirement
   - Medical and long term care issues
   - Retirement planning as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan
  ESTATE PLANNING
   - Wills and letters of instruction basics
   - Types of property ownership
   - Trust fundamentals
   - Estate taxation
   - Estate preservation and distribution
   - Estate planning as it relates to a comprehensive financial plan

2. It is never correct to crosspost or multipost and article to this
newsgroup and any other newsgroup in the misc.invest.* hierarchy.
This does not apply to meta-issues, such as RFDs.

3. Attorneys, accountants, investment counselors, insurance
professionals, financial planning professionals, and other interested
persons would have a forum to discuss their interrelated problems
and experiences.

4. General discussion concerning the different types of investments
would be welcome, however recommendations of specific stocks or
investments should not be allowed.  This group could easily be
cluttered with "get rich quick" schemes, and there are many other
forums designed for this purpose.

5. Discussions regarding existing or proposed legislation relevant to this
newsgroup would be welcome.

6. Solicitations, especially for specific financial products or services,
would not be welcome. Commercial references in the signature lines are
acceptable, as long as the body of the post makes a substantive
contribution.

7. To prevent possible overcrowding, *extensive* discussion in any
*one* topic of tax, law, investing and insurance should be limited
to the specialty newsgroup involved.

The ordering above is for convenience only and does not reflect a
preference ordering among the various topics.

The Role of the Moderator
-------------------------------------
8. The moderator will not permit posts offering professional or other
advice, services or products for remuneration, except for signature lines as
described in item 6.

9. The moderator will use his or her discretion to decide when
discussions drift too far from the topics above, or if a participant
would further benefit from posting in a specialty newsgroup, such
as misc.taxes or misc.legal.   The moderator may return a post, suggesting
a more appropriate newsgroup, post warnings when discussion starts to
drift off-topic, and may close down discussions when they are clearly off-
topic. The moderator will post a notice notifying the group of such actions.

10. The moderator will have the discretion to add editorial comments to a
post that he or she feels is inaccurate. For example:
   You can't contribute to an IRA if you're covered by a pension plan.
   [Moderator: This is wrong and a common misconception. See the FAQ.]

Moderator Selection and Replacement
----------------------------------------------------

11. A moderator serves until he or she resigns. A moderator may
resign at any time. A moderator is requested to give the group
adequate notice in order to insure an orderly transition.

12. A moderator may designate a back-up moderator during vacation
periods, as long as the group is given adequate notice.

13. A sole moderator may appoint one or more co-moderators.
Moderators may share their duties in any manner mutually
acceptable.  In the event that the group has multiple moderators, all
references to the sole moderator in the above paragraphs shall apply
to all of the moderators, collectively, if the context permits.

14. A resigning moderator, whether the sole moderator or co-
moderator, may select his or her successor.  Moderators are
requested to consider the opinions of readers of the group when
choosing their successors.  A resigning co-moderator may, with the
unanimous consent of the other moderators, choose not to appoint
a successor.

PLEASE, do not send the entire CFV back to me as this mail is archived.

Mark the ballot and then MAIL it to: 
Just "replying" to this message should work, but check the "To:" line.

indicate your desired vote in the appropriate locations inside the ballot.

IMPORTANT VOTING PROCEDURE NOTES:

Standard Guidelines for voting apply.  Only one vote per person, no
more than one vote per account.  Votes must be mailed directly from
the voter to the votetaker.  Anonymous, forwarded, or proxy votes
are not valid.  Votes mailed by WWW/HTML/CGI forms are considered
to be anonymous votes.

Vote counting is automated.  Failure to follow these directions may
mean that your vote does not get counted.  If you do not receive an
acknowledgment of your vote within three days, contact the votetaker
about the problem.  It's your responsibility to make sure your vote
is registered correctly.  Duplicate votes are resolved in favor of
the most recent valid vote.  Names, addresses, and votes of all voters
will be published in the final voting results post.

DO NOT redistribute this CFV in any manner whatsoever.  The purpose of
a Usenet vote is to determine the genuine interest of persons who would
read a proposed newsgroup.  Soliciting votes from disinterested parties
defeats this purpose.  Only the votetaker, the news.announce.newgroups
moderator, and the proponent (if specifically authorized by the votetaker)
are permitted to distribute copies of this CFV.

Distribution of pre-marked or otherwise modified copies of this CFV is
generally considered voting fraud and should be reported immediately to
the votetaker or the UVV .  In cases where voting fraud
is determined to have occurred, it is standard operating procedure to
delete ALL votes submitted by the violator.  When in doubt, ask the
votetaker.

DISTRIBUTION:

The only official sources for copies of this CFV are the locations listed
below and the votetaker's e-mail CFV server which can be reached at
