Fee-based Financial Advisor

[Polar Bear]

Not sure I've chosen the right forum for this, but I'd like to consult with a strictly fee-based financial adviser. My financial situation is relatively simple and my questions are not that complicated. Just looking for some basic guidance for a reasonable fee.

Any suggestions?

I suggest that you see the link below. You may have to drive a little distance but may be worth the drive.

I second Clark Howard's advice re: NAPFA and the Garrett Planning Network.

The only time I ever lost money was with a fee based financial person. I self direct now & I'm way ahead of the game. If the planner is so smart, ask him or her , how come they're still working? It wasn't rocket science to make several million dollars when the market tanked in 2008.
