8 Reasons Advisors are Worth Their Fees

Retirement Talk Podcast with Laura Stover

Fiscally conscious investors want to get the most for their money, and when it comes to working with an advisor, it’s important to understand the fee structure and what value they’ll provide. Now that anyone can research and access information at the click of a mouse, this question is extremely important to ask.

With more than 50 years of experience combined, Laura Stover, RFC® and Michael Wallin, CFP® understand the industry and what it takes to provide financial guidance for people working towards retirement. Those relationships, experience, and opportunity to learn from others is a huge benefit to working with someone like Laura and Michael, which is part of what we want to discuss.

In this episode, we’re going to break down the reasons why advisors are worth the fees they charge and how to evaluate the benefits you’re receiving. Returns are important, but the things that can’t be calculated like discouraging market timing and helping you avoid panic selling are two of the critical benefits to having an advisor on your side. They’ll also share some data to go along with these reasons to help paint the picture.
