“Fee Only means I only get paid a fee from my clients. I don’t get paid fees from products, from brokerage firms, from banks, from insurance companies… I only get paid by the client and that is the person I’m responsible to.” - Brent Hoskins, CFP®, CKA® of Focal Point Financial Group  “One of the questions you need to ask advisors you’re interviewing is, ‘how do you get paid?’” - Donovan Brooks, CFP®, CKA® of Storyline Financial In episode 13, we're talking about what the hell is Fee Only? Brent Hoskins, CFP®, CKA® of Focal Point Financial Group and Donovan Brooks, CFP®, CKA® of Storyline Financial, sit down with Kyle to discuss what it means when an advisor says they’re a “Fee Only advisor”. Do you know how your advisor gets paid? They break down the two basic ways advisors are compensated by their clients, which leads to the three different types of compensation structures (Commission, Fee Based, & Fee Only), which leads further into the various Fee Only models (AUM, Flat Fee, Hourly, and more).  Tune in! "Do you want to pay for products that you can get for free, or do you want to pay for the advice?"
