Financial advisors and financial planners can offer a wide range of services from tax planning to portfolio management, there can also be a wide range of fee’s for these services. In this episode we talk about what is and isn’t worth paying for (yes, some advice is not worth paying for) and how to get the biggest ‘bang for your buck’.

Memorable Quotes:
- “John Bogle famously said, ‘In investing, you get what you don’t pay for’. This should make financial advisors uncomfortable. Essentially John Bogle is saying the less you pay me the better the advice that your getting. So why not pay zero? Here’s why and we first have to differentiate between investment advice and planning advice.“
- “I think the advice needed to make the financial decisions during the retirement transition is one of the most valuable services a financial planner can provide in todays world. It hasn’t always been this way though.“
