As Christians, we were taught to be good stewards over our tithing and giving to the less fortunate. But when it came to our personal finances and investing we were left clueless on what the Bible says. What does the Bible say about managing debt, leaving a legacy, investing, and planning for your retirement? Mr. Christian Finance answers these and many other questions because we want to teach you how to become rich and righteous!

Welcome to Financial Advisors Say the Darnedest Things. I'm your host, AB Ridgeway.

2

00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:09,400

If you're looking for faith-based financial advice that you can actually

3

00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,980

understand, you have come to the right place. On this show, we demystify all the

4

00:00:13,980 --> 00:00:18,000

financial jargon that you may hear from your financial advisor. We leverage

5

00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,960

proven financial strategies but use faith-based principles for guidance. And

6

00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,960

during this process, we pray for discernment that you can understand the

7

00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:30,920

things that work for you. This program is for the beginner. Those who want to

8

00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,400

learn about finances but doesn't have the time or willingness to go get a

9

00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,320

master's of business administration and finance or sit through an eight-hour

10

00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:43,040

online course just to figure out what a bond is. So if you're like the other

11

00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:46,680

millions of investors that wish they knew what their advisor was talking

12

00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:52,840

about, be prepared to be prepared. So sit back and relax, not if you're driving, as

13

00:00:52,840 --> 00:01:00,080

we get this show started. AB cue the music. Let's make this happen.

14

00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:16,280

Hello everybody and welcome back. This is the second episode of a four-part series

15

00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:21,160

called How to Choose a Financial Advisor. The first part was called Types of

16

00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,240

Financial Advisors where we broke down the difference between robo-advisors,

17

00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:30,080

online advisors, and traditional financial advisors. If you didn't listen

18

00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:34,640

to that show, you may want to go back and do so because today we will be talking

19

00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,760

about these services and how to choose them. But first, let's start off as always

20

00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:45,640

with the scripture of the day. 1st Peter chapter 4 verse 10, as each has received

21

00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:52,320

a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God's varied grace. See,

22

00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:56,520

we all have gifts and skills and no matter if your skill is cleaning toilets

23

00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:01,360

or running a fortune 500 company, the goal is to use that talent to serve

24

00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:05,800

humanity. Just as we encourage our clients to use portions of their assets

25

00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:11,880

to further a cause they are passionate about, whether it's animal rights,

26

00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,800

missionary work, or even financially backing food services for the less

27

00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,200

privileged, we encourage professionals to use their talent in the same fashion,

28

00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:27,240

using it to do God's work and serve. Our word of the day is going to be fee only

29

00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:32,600

and fee based. We have two today, maybe a special bonus, right? It is hard to

30

00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:37,240

explain one without the other. So we're gonna have two today, fee only and fee

31

00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,760

based. By the end of the podcast, you should be able to know what these terms

32

00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:46,280

mean and how you can use them to help you choose your advisor. Today we're

33

00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:51,120

going to be talking about financial advisor services. Before we get into how

34

00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,040

to choose your financial advisor based on these services, let's go over a brief

35

00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,960

list of services that a financial advisor may talk to you about. First is

36

00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:06,320

goal planning. What is the purpose of this money? It could be to buy a house, it

37

00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:11,320

could be to fund long-term care, to take care of an elderly parent, it could be to

38

00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:16,960

send your child to school. Goals are important because if we don't know where

39

00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:22,480

we're going, we really don't know how to get there. Second is budget and cash flow.

40

00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:27,080

Where's your money and where is it going? And that's one of the biggest issues we

41

00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:32,600

see nowadays is that restaurants are taking money from clients. So whether

42

00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:37,280

it's a waiter or a door dash, a food service that brings it there where

43

00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,120

delivery service is $5 plus you're tipping the person which can run you

44

00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:47,280

another five. So now you're spending $10 extra on every mail that you send. Maybe

45

00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:52,880

you do that seven days a week, that's $70 times four, that's almost $300 in

46

00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:58,320

convenience that we're spending every day. So a budget is not really about

47

00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:02,760

restricting your spending, it's about redirecting your spending in the right

48

00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:08,000

direction into the places you want to put it. Because every time we get a

49

00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,800

paycheck, we give. We give to our mortgage companies, we give them to the light

50

00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,920

companies, to the gas companies, we give to restaurants, we give to individuals,

51

00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:23,400

children, parents, animals. We give all the time. But what a budget does is

52

00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,840

follows the dollar to make sure they go into the right direction and they're not

53

00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:32,880

lost. Next is investment advice. Are you taking too much risk in your portfolio

54

00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:38,360

or not taking enough? I think that is an aspect we don't talk about that much.

55

00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,800

Because everybody wants to be financially secure, but nobody wants to

56

00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:48,200

take the risk to get there. And the phrase is, you don't get rewarded for

57

00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,720

the risk that you don't take. So some people need to keep up with inflation,

58

00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:58,360

which can average between 2 and 3 percent depending. But they want to

59

00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,880

get into something super secure that's only yielding half a percent. That's not

60

00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:07,320

going to work. As we keep going, estate planning. Who is going to get what if

61

00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,960

something happens to you, God forbid. Estate planning is very important because

62

00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:18,920

it just sets up these alternatives to our main goals. What if we

63

00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:23,800

don't make it to age 70? What's going to happen to the people who are left with

64

00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,640

your assets? Because they have to do something with it. Whether it's all in

65

00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:34,560

cash, whether it's a house, rental property, vehicles, boats, whatever it may be.

66

00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,280

They need to do something with it. And estate planning gives you the

67

00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:43,360

opportunity to guide what is done with your stuff when you're left and you have

68

00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:48,640

no control over what happens. Education planning. Hey, have kids? Are you going

69

00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:53,160

back to school? How much debt will you be willing to incur? Or will you pay for it

70

00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,360

out of pocket? Or maybe is your employer going to pay a portion of your education?

71

00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:01,760

Is it going to go to a new career? Is it going to go to your current career? Are

72

00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:05,800

you going to go in-state? Are you going to go out-of-state? Are you eligible for

73

00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:10,880

maybe a scholarship? Right? A grant? Something. We need to figure those things

74

00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,820

out. Retirement planning. When do you want to retire? You want to retire at 55? Can

75

00:06:15,820 --> 00:06:20,960

you retire at 55, 65, 70? Are you going to work until you can't

76

00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:24,600

work anymore? Those are the type of questions that we answer and plan for.

77

00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:29,320

Your insurance. Is your estate covered? Is your spouse going to be

78

00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:33,520

covered in case something happens to you in an accident, God forbid?

79

00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,000

Your employee benefits. Are you taking advantage of your

80

00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:42,340

medical? Of your dental? Those things are very important. Career planning. Is this

81

00:06:42,340 --> 00:06:46,400

going to be your career? Are you going to change jobs? Do you need to move your

82

00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:51,400

401k from a previous job into this one? Are you going to invest into your

83

00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:56,040

company? Those are questions we need to answer as well. Debt assessment. Do you

84

00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,080

have too many credit cards? Are you trying to cancel cards that you've had

85

00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:05,000

for 10 years and potentially destroy your credit? Right? Are you paying them

86

00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,200

off? Do you have a high interest rate? What's going on there? We need to figure

87

00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:15,200

out where the money is going so we can run a good analysis on there and have

88

00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:20,960

more assets in your pocket as opposed to paying interest and fees. There

89

00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:25,360

are other services, obviously, that an advisor may provide for their client.

90

00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,600

Everything is not going to be necessary on the first visit. You're not going to

91

00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,280

go down the list and say, all right, I met you for the first time. Here are my goals.

92

00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:37,120

Here's my budget. I want some investment advice. Estate planning. Educational

93

00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,320

planning. Retirement planning. Insurance. Employees career. You know, debt

94

00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,680

assessment. And if you can't provide that, then I'm going somewhere else. That's not

95

00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:49,320

fair. It's not fair at all. But this is going to be an ongoing relationship. It

96

00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:53,720

may take you a year or two to get a full grasp of where you are. Even though the

97

00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:58,520

financial plan may be established with all the right documentation in a few

98

00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:03,040

months, it takes time for the plan to be implemented and see if it is even

99

00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:08,400

functional. So we can draft up this idea of where we're going to be. But life

100

00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:15,560

happens. I don't think any of the financial plans in 2019 had COVID-19 as

101

00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:21,000

one of the lines. During COVID-19, this is what your income may go down to. You

102

00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:23,380

know, you're going to stop doing this and this is how you're going to have to

103

00:08:23,380 --> 00:08:27,960

adjust your budget. Doesn't happen. But everybody who had a financial advisor in

104

00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:34,280

2019 leading into 2020 had their portfolio hopefully positioned in a way

105

00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:39,960

to absorb that hit and are in a better position now than those who did not have

106

00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:45,280

a financial advisor at that point. Now, let me give you an example. If you set a

107

00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:53,160

budget of $7,000 spending per month, but only spending $5,000, then that $2,000

108

00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:58,440

may need to be reallocated to your investment savings accounts. On the other

109

00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:06,040

hand, if we plan for $7,000 and you're consistently going over, you know, $10,000

110

00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:10,820

per month, we may need to adjust our expectations a little bit. The key

111

00:09:10,820 --> 00:09:15,760

takeaway is that you can get a one-time financial plan if you're self-disciplined

112

00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:21,400

and execute that plan. But as most of us have found out, that life is dynamic. If

113

00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,160

someone passes or you win the lottery, your financial situation may change

114

00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:29,680

instantly. And it is always nice to know you have someone who is willing to help

115

00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:33,400

you make those changes as they happen, especially when we go through the

116

00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,960

different financial stages, such as the accumulation stage, pre-retirement stage,

117

00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,880

and retirement stage. Don't worry, we will have future episodes on these topics as

118

00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:48,200

well. But to tie this together with the different types of advisors, different

119

00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,640

advisors have different services. If you listen to our last show and you just

120

00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,240

need investment advice, you may be thinking about going with the Robo

121

00:09:56,240 --> 00:10:01,160

advisor. But remember, you get what you pay for. I like to consider myself a

122

00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:05,160

fiscal conservative, meaning that anything that I can do to cut cost and

123

00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,240

be more efficient with my money, I'm going to do it. And investing is no

124

00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,400

different. So if I was young and didn't have a lot of assets and my financial

125

00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:18,120

situation wasn't complex, I would probably go with the Robo advisor. Because in

126

00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,800

my life, I rarely go shopping without a coupon. I'm the guy who will be the

127

00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,120

first one to Google JCPenney's coupon before walking into the store. Lord knows

128

00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:32,240

their Wi-Fi is not good in there. But on the flip side, I have no problem spending

129

00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:37,240

a greater amount to get what I need. See, my uncle used to say, if you cut corners,

130

00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:41,280

you'll have a circle and lose your square, meaning you might not get what

131

00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:46,400

you intended if you try to be cheap. If you're looking for holistic advice and a

132

00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:52,000

Robo advisor, you're just not going to get it. If you're stressed because your

133

00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,920

spouse just passed and bills are coming in from everywhere and you don't know

134

00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:00,840

what to do, a Robo advisor won't be there to comfort you. And how much does

135

00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:05,960

emotional support cost? That human touch. Even this podcast, you can read this

136

00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:10,880

information. But how good does it feel to hear human being something that you

137

00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,400

could relate to instead of a computer that is constantly tracking you to

138

00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:20,200

offer suggestions? So what I want you to take away from this is this. It is great

139

00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,080

to trim some of the fat from the money you will spend for services, but some

140

00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:28,760

things you do need better quality. So if your only consideration is cost or fees,

141

00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,960

then a Robo advisor may be the way to go. But if you're looking for the other

142

00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:37,200

services we spoke about, you may be leaving more money on the table than you

143

00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,440

are saving. With that said, if you need holistic advice on your whole financial

144

00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:48,080

situation and not just what bond you can put your money into to get 2%, you'll

145

00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:52,320

need a real advisor. A good financial advisor will team up with other advisors

146

00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,600

such as your lawyer, your accountant, and insurance agents to make sure that you're

147

00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,920

taking advantage of every service available that is applicable to you.

148

00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:04,400

Sometimes just this service alone could save you thousands of dollars as each

149

00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:09,740

advisor finds discounts and tax advantages for you and your situation. The

150

00:12:09,740 --> 00:12:14,080

final two types of advisors were online and traditional. The only difference is

151

00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:18,440

really a physical location, so I won't go into that too deeply. You know, online

152

00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:23,320

advisors may be in a call center type environment where a traditional may have

153

00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:28,280

their own office. I only want you to remember that don't knock virtual until

154

00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:33,200

you try it. We have experienced with COVID that now people are celebrating

155

00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:36,920

Christmas online when they used to only have four people at the Christmas party.

156

00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:42,920

Now they have 40. It may not be in person, it may not be in person, but they get to

157

00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,920

see people they haven't seen in years due to distance. The same with advisor.

158

00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:51,680

Your city or town may not have the advisor that's right for you. So online

159

00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:55,960

gives you a chance to meet an advisor that is in another state that is perfect

160

00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:02,240

for you. Now location may not be a big deal, but how they get paid is. In our

161

00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,080

industry, there are two types of ways that an advisor gets paid and now we're

162

00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:11,600

leading into those keywords of the day. Fee only and fee based. So fee only. A

163

00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:17,040

rudimentary definition of fee only is an advisor that only gets paid by the

164

00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:21,720

customer for his service and is not compensated by a third party through

165

00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:25,760

commissions from selling a product or through a kickback for recommendation

166

00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,480

for a client to purchase a product. Now fee based is when the advisor is

167

00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:35,360

compensated based on the products that they sell. Don't get me wrong, sometimes

168

00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,880

the products that they sell is at no cost to the client. For example, an advisor

169

00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:44,920

may be compensated by a commission for selling the $100,000 fixed annuity

170

00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:49,200

policy, but the client doesn't pay a fee. He is just compensated for making that

171

00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:54,120

referral. The goal of a fee only advisor is to eliminate this conflict of

172

00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:59,040

interest. Is this advisor recommending this specific lawyer because he is a

173

00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:04,440

good fit or because he promised him $400 for the referral or is this mutual fund

174

00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,160

better for the long-term goal or does he get a $5,000 commission for the one he

175

00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:14,560

sold me instead of a $3,000 commission for the one that was equally as good? So

176

00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:20,960

in good faith of this show, I know I threw a lot of terminology out to you

177

00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:25,040

right now. So I'm gonna go back and I am going to review a little bit of it, the

178

00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:30,480

key takeaways here. Fee only compensated for your services not paid by

179

00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,840

commission. Fee base is strictly commission. Sometimes you'll have a

180

00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:40,080

hybrid as I talked about in the other show where some of the investments you

181

00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:45,680

can get into, they are based on the service, but most of the time we talk

182

00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:51,080

about fee base, we're talking about commission here. And that is the problem

183

00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:56,320

with a conflict of interest. Just because it exists doesn't mean that is going to

184

00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:00,240

be the case. That lawyer may be the best lawyer in town or that higher

185

00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,120

commission will mutual fund may have better returns over a 10-year period. So

186

00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:09,880

it isn't always about the fees. So which one do you choose? I couldn't tell you.

187

00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:15,560

Why? Because if I was to recommend which one is better than the other, I will be

188

00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:20,080

creating the same thing I am trying to help you avoid, a conflict of interest.

189

00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:27,040

And you're asking me how? Well I own a fee only advisory service. If I tell you

190

00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:31,240

that fee only is better because they get paid only for the service they provide

191

00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,680

and have no third-party incentive for recommendations, then I benefit from that

192

00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:40,640

choice. Because you would be more willing to come to me. And that isn't right. This

193

00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,920

show is to provide information for clients so they can make the best

194

00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:49,800

decision for themselves. I can't do it for you. But as a financial advisor, I can

195

00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:54,320

give you the information you need so you can't tell anyone you didn't know.

196

00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:59,240

Because knowledge is power. See my recommendation is to speak to both types

197

00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,760

of advisors and figure out what type works for you. If you just need a mutual

198

00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:08,840

fund, a fee-based advisor may be great. You pay one time, get a good product, and

199

00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:13,360

go on about your business. You don't have to pay $2,000 for someone to evaluate

200

00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:19,880

your finances and tells you to go buy the same fund. Fee only, in my opinion, are

201

00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,960

for clients that need someone they can trust. Someone who is willing to go to

202

00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,680

the estate lawyer's office and sit in on the meeting to make sure they have the

203

00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:32,000

proper verbiage and your will and power of attorney to safely transfer your

204

00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:37,280

assets. Fee-based don't necessarily need to do what is in your best interest. They

205

00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:41,720

just need to do what is suitable based on standards set up by the financial

206

00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:46,240

regulatory authorities. So my final thought is this. You want someone who's

207

00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,880

going to serve you and always act in a fiduciary capacity. That's that word

208

00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:57,200

again, fiduciary. Fee only is all about services. Fee base is about products. So

209

00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,720

I'll make it simple here. Fee only is about service. Fee base is about products.

210

00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:05,280

So if you just need a portfolio and trust they act in your best interest,

211

00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:10,480

then fee base may be a good option. But if you are like 90% of my clientele, you

212

00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,040

want an advisor that's going to take your whole financial picture and use

213

00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,360

that to construct your investments and manage those financial aspects so your

214

00:17:18,360 --> 00:17:23,600

whole livelihood is not dependent on how the stock market did that day. Well, I

215

00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:28,520

hope that you've been blessed. As always, this episode was created by AB Ridgway,
