GBBefore switching to Advisor I had a… Before switching to Advisor I had a professional relationship for over a decade. Honestly don’t know how anyone with a good income can manage their own money, I have tried but failed if I’m being honest here. I mainly switched to them because I found that my fees, about 1%, were no longer working for me. So initially you could say I switched to save money nota hard choice. However after 2 years I can say that I not only lowered my fees but have contributed more to my investments with confidence and feel like I am in control of my money, hard to put a price on that. If you are thinking about working with Advisor or switching you should.

GBGood Service We have enjoyed working with our Advisor over the last year or so. It did take some time to get all the accounts set up, but it's been nice to have someone else managing our investments according to our values. It was great to have a third-party giving us tips and advice on some of our financial decisions over the last year and it's been easier to engage my partner in financial decision making by feeling accountable to someone else! Some of the systems seem to be slow to update or freeze (RightCapital) so I probably wouldn't use it for my main budgeting app, etc. I do appreciate that we can contact our Advisor whenever we have financial questions, and he is very responsive. I think it would be great to have a lower cost option once all your systems are up and running and you are just "maintaining" everything - I am not sure the price is fully approachable for moderate to lower income earners (who probably need this service the most!).

GBSo far so good (few months in) So far so good (few months in). It’s been helpful to have an all encompassing financial advisory team and I’ve felt more confident in my financial position because of it

GBWorth It The team at Advisor took time to understand my goals, assess my financial situation, then gradually work with me to make changes I am comfortable with. They have helped me see ROI way past the initial year fee in year 1. Takes $ to make $ and after paying their price I got more back than I put in!

GBWhat's been great about joining Advisor… What's been great about joining Advisor is the accountability I've had gained over my finances. Having someone to provide me easy steps to make progress combined with regular follow ups is simple, but it works. I also don't feel like just another file in a big firm's account, I feel like someone who's known by name even though I'm an average person. Before joining, I felt stuck between feeling like I needed to do something more deliberate with my money and feeling like my situation isn't sophisticated enough to warrant expensive guidance. Advisor has bridged that gap for me beautifully. I highly recommend!
