What is a Financial Advisor

November 21, 20222 min read

“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.” - Benjamin Franklin

Financial advisors in Florida are professionals who help people manage their money. They provide advice about investments, retirement planning, insurance, taxes, and many other financial matters. These professionals are licensed by the state and have passed exams to prove they know what they're doing.

With that said, here are 6 reasons why you should work with Roman Financial Services today! 👊

1. Financial Planning

Financial planning is the process of making decisions about how much money you need to live comfortably, where you want to spend it, and how long you plan to save for retirement. A financial planner helps you make these decisions by looking at your current situation and future goals. He or she may recommend different types of investment accounts, including stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and individual retirement accounts (IRAs).

2. Retirement Planning

Retirement planning is the process of deciding how much money you'll need after you stop working. You might decide to work until age 65 and then retire completely, or you might continue working part-time while continuing to contribute to your employer's retirement plan. Either way, you should consider whether you want to invest your savings yourself or leave them in a tax-deferred account.

3. Insurance

Insurance is protection against loss of assets and liabilities. There are two major types of insurance: property insurance covers physical damage to your home, car, and other possessions; liability insurance protects you if someone gets hurt on your property. If you own a business, you might also need workers' compensation insurance.

4. Taxes

Taxes are fees charged by government agencies to fund services such as police, firefighting, roads, and schools. Federal income taxes are paid by individuals and businesses based on taxable income. State and local sales taxes apply only to purchases made within those jurisdictions. Property taxes vary depending on where you live.

5. Investment Advice

Investment advice includes everything from selecting a type of investment to choosing an advisor. An advisor is a professional who provides financial guidance to clients. He or she works with you to set goals and develop a strategy for achieving them.

6. Mutual Funds

Mutual funds are pools of money managed by a company called a mutual fund manager. You buy shares of a mutual fund, just like you would stock in a company. When you buy shares of a mutual funds, you become a shareholder. As a shareholder, you receive dividends and share in the profits of the fund.
