Season 2 Episode 8: How to choose a financial advisor

Despite the many reasons to get help from a financial advisor – especially in today’s climate – only 35% currently work with a financial professional. In this episode of Edelman Financial Engines’ Everyday Wealth™, Jean and wealth planner Isabel Barrow talk to a listener who wants to choose the right financial advisor after going through a litigious divorce. Later in the episode, Jean and Isabel discuss considerations to make when you’re looking for a wealth planner and questions to ask to help you choose the right one.

Ms. Chatzky receives cash compensation for acting as host of the Everyday Wealth podcast and for related activities and therefore has an incentive to endorse Edelman Financial Engines and its planners.  That compensation is a fixed sum paid on an annual basis; and reimbursement for certain expenses.  The amount paid each year does not vary, is not based on show content or any results-dependent factors (e.g., popularity of the show).

This show is pre-recorded, and any callers are prescreened.
