Planning

In a previous article, I discussed why it’s important to perform due diligence when you’re hiring a financial professional and how military members have unique requirements they should seek to address because of their benefits. Based on the questions I compiled, I believe it’s only fair and transparent that I publish my answers

Do a quick Google Search on “Questions to ask your financial advisor” and you’ll find a page of articles. All have a slightly different focus depending on whether they emphasize planning like this one from the CFP Board, or investments likes one from Nerd Wallet, or some personal questions like this one from Dave Ramsey.  While good starting points, none focus on financial planning for military members and the unique benefits available to members.  With that in mind, consider these questions when interviewing advisors.
