Imagine a world where your bank, your government, and even your newsfeed were legally required to put your best interest—and the planet’s—ahead of their own. That’s not sci-fi. That’s the vision behind FIAT: Fiduciary in All Things.
In this episode of Money Matters, host Christopher Hensley, RICP®, CES®, welcomes back George Kinder, often called the father of life planning and the mind behind the global Fiduciary in All Things (FIAT) movement. Together, they explore what happens when the concept of fiduciary duty expands beyond financial advice to shape civilization, democracy, and institutions.
You’ll learn:
What fiduciary really means—and why it matters far beyond Wall Street
How Kinder’s three domains of freedom (“each moment, your life, and civilization”) evolved into the FIAT framework
Why institutions that serve truth, people, democracy, and the planet could end polarization and rebuild trust
How mindfulness and deep listening can transform not just client meetings, but politics, media, and corporate leadership
The role AI might play in a fiduciary civilization—and why guardrails rooted in truth are critical
Whether you’re a financial advisor, a concerned citizen, or someone who’s simply tired of wondering who to trust with your money and your vote, this conversation will challenge how you see capitalism, democracy, and your own role as a global citizen.
