149 - How to Find a Financial Professional That's Right For You
Description
Scott and James discuss how to find a financial professional that's right for you.
Listener Question
My husband and I are both high earners. He owns his own business and I am employed full time in the health tech sector. We are in a great position where we are debt free, own our home and a rental property and have close to a million in investments. We manage our finances and taxes on our own today but are getting to the point where we'd like some advice around how to make the most of our assets, particularly from a tax perspective, as we continue to earn. We're 35 and 40 years old and have one child. We've been burned by tax accountants in the past who charge a ton but provide very little that we didn't already know. We find there are lots of resources for those starting out and many for those in the 5+ million range, but very little out there for where we are. Do you have any advice on how to find a professional who would be able to help us for a reasonable fee? I'd love to find someone we can create a relationship with who will grow with us. Thanks!
