How does one find a good personal financial advisor? What criteria should one use & what are some good resources?

1 In your current situation in the States I would stick with a major firm. Banks can do it as well. We have had financial planners dissapear with people's money or go broke.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
