MY CONSULTATION CHARGES

Dear all,

Patients pay their doctors for advice and then buy the medicines from the chemist. ARN holders(also called as Independent Financial Advisors, IFAs) are viewed as doctors and therefore being asked to seek a fee from their clients for advice rendered.

I am now charging FEES both for Online and Offline Advice.
My Charge is right now a reasonable Rs.1000.

By the way, it is good for you too.
When a person pays for advice, he is serious about it and will demand good service which will keep you on your toes. I have more responsibility when I am charging a client for advice and service. I have to excel in both.

Charging a fee also enables me to approach my relatives and friends without the worry that personal relationship would be strained.

Do also remember, that IFAs also do a lot of services like redenring Account Statements, follow up services, apart from, Of course, giving Quality Investment Advice.
Clients need to understand that paying a fee puts greater onus on the advisor, as there will be consistency as well as the development of a relationship. Surely in bear markets, it is easier for them to recognise this, as they have been badly hurt, made emotional decisions about investing, and now feel the need for unbiased advice even more.

Remember, that there are too many schemes with mirror portfolios and identical investment objectives. The choice is difficult. Figuring out which is the right one for you is a herculean task.
Trying to save a paltry consultation charges and Compromising on a "Good" Scheme will only make you look like a fool, a few years down the line.
Or instead, relying on MY Proven Research, where even the US based etfdb has acknowledged as my blog being in the Top 50 Investment Blog in the World, is the first Wise thing to do.
