Why Use an Advisor
As a society, we are inclined to be as self sufficient as possible, especially when there are costs involved.
However, there are several instances when we may look to hire a professional, including:
- the need for specialized skills, training or expertise we don't possess or have the desire to obtain (i.e. physician or accountant)
- the need for specific tools, equipment, ,technology or products we don't have access to or know how to use (i.e. mechanic)
- a desire to create a long range strategy that someone can hold you accountable to (i.e. personal trainer)
When it comes to a Financial Plan, Investments or Retirement Planning, people often try to go it alone and do it themselves, often asking, "Why should I use a Financial Advisor?" They are bombarded with ads making investing look easy and encouraging them to develop their own plan and portfolio, monitor it themselves and make adjustments as their life events change, as though it is such a simple process.
But money is emotional, and there are many complexities to a financial plan and investment portfolio, even moreso for someone in or near retirement where the challenges expand exponentially. In addition, clients may not have access to all the tools and resources necessary to fully execute a financial plan, investment portfolio or retirement strategy.
