How to Become a Financial Advisor: The Career and How to Start

from The Fiscal Physical Retirement Podcast · host Aaron & Ryan

A career in financial planning can be genuinely rewarding, but Ryan is upfront about one thing: it is a great career and a brutal job in the early years. If you go in for a year or two, you get all the hard parts and none of the long-term payoff. If you commit for decades, it becomes one of the most impactful and financially rewarding careers available.Ryan explains why demand for financial advisors is growing fast, connecting it to the roughly $84 trillion great wealth transfer currently moving between generations. He also covers what the career actually looks like day to day, including why it is far more of a people business than a math business, what it takes to build a client base from scratch, and what personality traits tend to predict success.Find "Your Fiscal Physical" the book on AmazonIf you have suggestions or feedback, please email us at: [email protected], as always, Stay the Course!
