Careers in Financial Planning and Wealth Management

Financial planners and wealth managers help individuals plan their financial futures.

How are you going to cover your retirement needs? What do you have to do today to put your children through college? This work can be personally and financially rewarding and requires excellent interpersonal skills. A good financial planner understands investments, taxes, estate planning issues and knows how to listen. This work can be done within a company such as IDS Financial Services or by yourself, as a sole proprietorship. Most planners go solo or work within smaller practices. It's essential then that you have a certain amount of entrepreneurship given that you will be running your own business.

The work pays well and is rewarding if you like to help people. Increasingly, it pays to obtain the CertifiedFinancial Planner (CFP) designation. An alternative designation popular outside of the United States is the Chartered Wealth Manager. The job outlook for this profession is considered to be good and it is expected that career opportunities and salaries will grow substantially in the next decade.
