FrequentlyAsked Questions

Should I get a financial advisor in my 20s?

Yes. Even without a high salary, an advisor can help you invest early, build a budget, and avoid costly mistakes.

What type of advisor is best for young adults?

Look for a fee-only fiduciary who works with young professionals and offers flat-rate or subscription-based services.

Can financial advisors help with student loans?

Yes. Advisors can help you manage repayment strategies, explore refinancing, and understand how debt impacts your goals.

How much does a financial advisor cost?

Fees vary — from hourly ($150–$400), flat-fee plans ($1,000–$3,000), or 0.5%–1.5% of assets under management.

Where do most young adults get financial advice?

Many turn to social media, but working with a certified advisor offers personalized, trusted guidance that scales with your income.

Do Young Adults Need a Financial Advisor?

Yes — young adults can benefit significantly from working with a financial advisor, even early in their careers. You don’t need to be wealthy to start. The right advisor helps you build smart habits from day one:
Create a Budget: Understand income, expenses, and how to start saving.

Manage Debt: Get help with student loans, credit cards, and payment strategies.

Invest Early: Learn how to invest in 401(k)s, Roth IRAs, or brokerage accounts.

Plan for Retirement: Take advantage of compound growth by starting early.

Set Goals: Whether it’s buying a house or starting a business, they’ll help you map it out.

Look for a fee-only fiduciary who specializes in working with 20- and 30-somethings — no high net worth required.
