How do I get paid?
I’m fee-only, which means I only get paid by my clients. I don’t make any commissions or third-party kickbacks. This means that I’m not incentivized to sell products (like insurance, annuities, mutual funds, etc.). When I make a recommendation, it is because I truly believe it is the right thing for my client, not because I’m making a commission behind closed doors.
If you don’t know how much you’re paying your advisor, then I would certainly ask them. And be sure to ask this question when interviewing new advisors.
