Here are top 3 reasons why you should hire one now:

1. Financial goals: A good financial advisor will understand your financial goals and help you in achieving them. He/she will identify best plans for your needs and make your money grow.

2. Knowledge: Financial advisors and planners have deep knowledge about complex products and can read the nitty-gritty of various instruments. They also have good contacts with intermediaries who can tailor-make schemes for you.

3. Save time: Once you hire a financial advisor, you don’t have to manage your portfolio. This saves you a lot of time, effort and energy. It takes off a huge task off your plate. You have to just meet your financial advisor at regular intervals and see whether you are on right track or not.
