Root Talks: What Does Vanguard Say About Financial Advisors?
Manage episode 465233364 series 3307298
Vanguard’s Advisor Alpha study shows that working with an advisor can boost net returns by around 3% annually through smart investing, tax planning, and behavioral coaching. But the real value? It’s not just about numbers.
Ari and James break down how advisors help clients stay level-headed, avoid costly mistakes, and feel more confident about their future. Research even shows investors with $1.2M+ report greater financial happiness with an advisor by their side.
Not everyone needs one, but knowing when professional support can make a real difference? That’s the key.
