Entrusting your life savings to a financial advisor requires careful consideration and due diligence, especially when it comes to managing large IRAs. Before handing over your hard-earned nest egg, it's crucial to ensure that your advisor possesses the necessary expertise and experience to handle the responsibility. To help you navigate this, we've compiled a list of ten crucial questions to ask your advisor about IRAs.

 

Here are a few of the questions we’ll highlight in today’s episode:

  • IRA distribution planning requires specialized knowledge. Do you have expertise in this area? (8:07)
  • What professional training do you have in IRA distribution planning? What courses or programs have you taken? (10:40)
