But does he manage your money well? Any updates from anyone? How do his results compare to the increase in the DOW and S&P 500? If you have been with him for a while, how well did he protect your investments in 2007 and 2008? Did he get you out in time to miss the move from a 14,000 DOW to a 6,000 DOW? Does he charge a straight 1% fee or do you also get transaction fees? Does he provide a regular withdrawal schedule so you use your investments as an income stream? Anyone left them and if so why? Does he try to sell you products or annuities?
Thanks for any input you can provide. If any questions seem a little personal and you don't want them posted, just send a PM to me.

I would appreciate answers to these questions as well, regarding any financial advisor in the area.
