In this episode of Ditch the Suits, we break down 13 essential questions you should ask before working with any financial advisor. From understanding how they’re paid to how they make investment decisions, these questions are designed to help you uncover conflicts of interest and make more informed choices.

We also explore how the financial industry often creates confusion and pressure and how asking the right questions can help you cut through the noise.
