Finding someone that can truly help you is difficult sometimes, simply because there are so many options to choose from. The Internet is full of so-called experts that can help you make wise investments and financial decisions, but how do you know whom you can really trust?

- Shop around – take the time to interview several candidates and make sure they can meet your needs.
- Experience counts – although everyone has to start somewhere, there is definitely something to be said for an investment advisor with real experience.
- They do get paid – financial and investment advisors get paid for their services so you need to make sure you understand how their pay structure works. That’s because they can all differ. For example, financial planners and stockbrokers are usually paid differently.
- Considers your needs – look for someone who is invested in you and your needs and who can come up with a plan that fits those needs.
