Hi Liz,
I have not been able to find an RIA who would take an account less than 1 million dollars. The often advertise as fee only financial planners but that is a misrepresentation in all cases I have seen: They either manage investments and do a very small amount of financial planning, if any but the “Fee only Financial planner” is a hook to get the accounts to invest.
What I would like is to pay someone for investment and planning advice and take their advice but do the actual investing myself. I can’t find anyone who will do that in the Phoenix area.
Happy New year,
Chris Schene
