When Should You Hire A Professional CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™?
Is there a ‘magic number’ to hit in your bank account or a ‘right age’ to hire a professional CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™? Ultimately, you decide. However, everyone can benefit from the expertise of a financial professional throughout their life.
It May Be Time To Hire A Professional When…
Everyone’s journey is different, there are situations where seeking professional guidance instead of going solo makes sense. Let’s explore some scenarios together.
1. When You’re Dreaming Big
Whether you’re aiming for an early retirement or you want a vacation home, a financial planner can help turn those dreams into achievable goals. They will create a unique roadmap that breaks down exactly how to reach your dreams then help you execute the plan.
2. When Investing Feels Overwhelming
Let’s face it: financial planning can be intimidating, and the Internet has lots of conflicting advice. It’s also time-consuming to keep up with changing provisions. A financial planner breaks down complex concepts like investment options and taxes into easy-to-understand terms and guides you through every step.
3. When You Have A Major Milestone
Experiencing a major life event, such as marriage, welcoming a baby, navigating a divorce, or getting ready to retire, has big financial implications. A professional will ensure you’re prepared and that you adjust your financial plan accordingly.
4. When Sticking To The Plan Gets Tough
Lots of people know what to do in theory (save more, spend less), but that can be really hard to do in practice. If following your budget or hitting your short- or long-term financial goals feels impossible, a financial planner can be your accountability partner. They’ll help you set realistic goals and keep you on track.
5. When Debt Weighs You Down
Should you pay off debt now or later? Should you attack your mortgage or your student loans first? Can you afford to add another car payment right now? A financial planner will offer the best strategies for managing debt so you don’t have to do it alone.
