Recommendation Wanted - Financial Advisor

Hobbes

Looking for a new financial advisor as I don't see eye to eye with the one that I have. I seem to recall one or 2 of the forumers here work in that field.

Also open to any recommendations.

The problem is you are short.

Hobbes

No they are too tall.

No problem, I'm ok with short... or tall... Send me the money and I'll invest it.... Off to Vegas in 13 days... woohoo red or black? If we win I keep 10% as my expertise fee...

Look into Robo-advisor, maybe that would interest you.

I haven't used one yet because i use comp's strategy.

Don't even need a roboadvisor anymore. Buy vcns, vbal, or vgro depending on your need. Based on your age and hopefully empty nest status you probably want vcns.

In all seriousness I doubt you are doing anything complicated like establishing trusts for your children or anything like that and if you want to call, email or pm me I can pretty much get you set with whatever you want to achieve. Not licensed in any way so obv the advice is free and informal.

Hobbes pm me the rough amount you are looking to invest and I can give you a few names if you want.

For me. The best financial advisor is, No Financial Advisor.

I like to invest things myself.
Start with an index ETF. The ones Moose suggested are great.

Only about 13% of professional money managers beat the S&P 500 index.

This might be much better than professional money management, and a lot more fun. :-)
