#76. Not all financial advice is created equal. Here's why.
Show Notes

All the different flavors of financial advice.

In this episode, Trishul and Aaron discuss the value of financial planning beyond just investments, such as taxes saved, utilizing retirement plans, and insurance analysis. They go over the pros and cons of working with an advisor who also sells the recommended insurance and investment products. This brings up the history of financial advice and the difference between fee-only, fee-based, and commission-only. No compensation structure is free of conflict or misaligned incentives. Even so, understanding the nuances involved can help you find an advisor that will put your interests first.
