Under a set of core assumptions, this consumer profile is projected to have a final lifetime portfolio value of approximately $3.24 million if retaining the services of a financial advisor – not accounting for additional savings or portfolio withdrawals – versus a final estimated lifetime portfolio value of $1.56 million without the services of a financial advisor. This example is based on the valuation framework presented in SmartAsset's whitepaper "The Value of a Financial Advisor: What's It Really Worth?" (Nov. 2024). The value of professional financial advice is only an illustrative estimate and varies with each unique client's individual circumstances and portfolio composition. Carefully consider your investment objectives, risk factors, and perform your own due diligence before choosing a financial advisor. This is a hypothetical example and is not representative of any specific security. Actual results when working with a financial advisor will vary. This scenario is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent an actual client. Results may vary. This is not an offer to buy or sell any security or interest. All investing involves risk, including loss of principal. Working with an adviser may come with potential downsides such as payment of fees (which will reduce returns). Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. There are no guarantees that working with an adviser will yield positive returns. The existence of a fiduciary duty does not prevent the rise of potential conflicts of interest.
