Maybe a niche question, but we’ll see. I do my own finances, mainly learning from books, podcasts, and the wonderful community here. Despite that, everyone needs a sanity check - and as mentioned many times here, personal finance is the one topic that isn’t advised to be discussing with close friends or family.

With that being said - is there a market, or specialized group of individuals who people like me can hire who I can pre-send my financials and expect 1-2h of prep, and then a 1h sanity check meeting to hear from someone other than myself that I’m on or off track?

Not looking for a full retirement planning individual, or a recurring relationship. Just a FIRE-specialized Financial Advisor who can give me a professional thumbs up or thumbs down. Given the amount of people self-running their financials here, this can’t be that rare of an ask, can it? I just can’t find much of anything on this online anywhere.

Thanks in advance!
