Why should you work with a financial advisor?

Having a financial advisor can reduce stress when making major financial decisions like saving for a home, education, or retirement. Reasons to seek an advisor include uncertainty in managing finances, lack of time to monitor investments, and disinterest in daily investment management. Various financial advice providers exist, such as customer service representatives, personal bankers, mutual fund representatives, investment advisors, financial planners, and insurance advisors, each offering different services and fee structures.
