As has already been stated a broker is going to sell you things. Things that pay him a commission. That is how he makes a living. The more you buy and sell the more he makes.
If you are doing your own research h and making your own decisions use Schwab or Fidelity.
If you want someone to make the decisions for you and manage your portfolio then you want a fee only advisor. A Registered Investment Advisor has a duty to put your interests first. It’s called a fiduciary obligation.
And do not buy Fisher Investments BS line that they are clearly different. EVERY Registered Investment Advisor has the same duties and obligations.
