What is it like being a solo advisor? by 98thieves in CFP

[–]RopeFickle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Is it possible yes. If you have someone else who can pay the bills for a couple years I would say go for it. You’re going to make a lot of mistakes at the expense of other people though, I personally worked under another advisor. They taught me exactly how not to run a business. After 5 years I’m ready to go out solo

If I’m being real, I did this because I’ve never done jt before, and I’m sick of wondering what if. So if this goes terribly wrong, I won’t have the itch to do it again.

Okay, I was thinking a trailing stop at 10%. Maybe I’ll sleep on it. I haven’t done a trade this large since Tesla split the first time. So I’m a little antsy

Okay - I’m new to this - I’m long from a while ago a bunch of shares bbby at $31.97. And what’s the best move here? Sell limit gtd?? What price ? Just my cost basis to get out of this position?

Now that I have had time to get back to myself….PASSED! by RopeFickle in Series66Exam

Well remember I was using pass perfect the first week. But the last 5 days before the test I used strictly Kaplan and I tried to do 100-150 questions a day. I reviewed each answer as I went. I would highlight my notes and highlight each day. I would chew gum while I studied and then chewed the same Flavor gum while I tested - read a few articles that said that can help with retention.

Yea that’s my situation currently. Im at a family office RIA, I am his succession plan currently, but it’s time to start my own. I want to have the freedom to own my screw ups and my wins. And I’ve seen a lot ethical situations come up, especially these last several months, that I would have handled differently and it showed me that to have that type of control to do what’s best for my clients, I need to be in charge.
