The event was broadcast on PCN TV, and the video is available on their website. (Link and login credentials below. PCN has granted us a license to distribute the video to the crew.)<\/p>\n<p>The first video is primarily introductions, so I recommend you skip to Video #2. There you\u2019ll see the lovely tribute video prepared by the PA Society, my acceptance speech, and a performance by the acappella group, the Princeton Nassoons. I couldn\u2019t resist joining the young men for an impromptu rendition of my alma mater, \u201cOld Nassau,\u201d as well as a stirring \u201cGod Bless America\u201d in which the entire audience\u2014some 1,500 attendees\u2014sang in unison. (Enjoy!)<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m also attaching an article from <strong><em>InvestmentNews<\/em><\/strong> naming me as one of two \u201cIcons\u201d (along with eighteen \u201cInnovators\u201d) that have shaped and transformed the financial advice profession. \u201cJohn C. Bogle\u2014Jack to his millions of fans\u2014revolutionized the investment world with the simple notion that every dollar investors pay in expenses to a mutual fund company is a dollar they can\u2019t use for retirement, their children\u2019s education or anything else.\u201d The two honorees will be recognized at a luncheon on April 3<sup>rd <\/sup>in New York.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you enjoy the article, as well as the video of the PA Society event.
