Is a financial advisor the same as a financial planner?
- A financial planner is a professional who helps companies and individuals create a program to meet long-term financial goals.
- Financial advisor is a broader term for those who helps manage your money including investments and other accounts.
- Given the proliferation of the financial industry today, many planners and advisors may actually do the same thing – so do your homework before hiring somebody to guide you.
When is it a good idea to hire a financial advisor?
- You feel “lost” in planning for your financial future and you need a roadmap.
- You just don’t want to deal. When it comes to money, you’re not the DIY type, and you just want a professional to take care of it.
- You like managing your money, but realize that your financial plan would benefit from an impartial and unemotional third-party opinion.
We all of us will fall into one of these three categories…at least eventually.
What does a financial advisor cost?
Often pricing is assessed on a sliding scale. So the more assets you have under management, the lower your percentage will be.
Financial advisors can add value in more ways than higher returns. For instance, a financial advisor may use tax minimization strategies to reduce your tax bill, Estate Planning Strategies to avoid Probate, Sale or Acquisition advisory on a Business, to Portfolio Hedging using Alternative Investments, and Real Estate Cash Flow strategies to further differentiate your portfolio. Perhaps the biggest benefit of working with a financial advisor is making sure you work with a Financial Advisor that fits your future not your Present.

You want to grow into a relationship where as you mature and have more complexities in life your Financial Advisor can readily handle all those aspects that may come up.
The biggest question when evaluating a financial advisor is if they’re giving you greater confidence and clarity that you’ll meet your financial goals.
