I'm glad you found an honest and competent FA. They do exist. I know plenty of smart people who have zero interest in investing and they're better off with a simple plan such as yours.
And it wasn't just about where to invest, he also taught me the best withdrawal plans so as not to get taxed crazy and what would happened to my savings when I started depleting it by taking out huge chunks of cash (buying a beach house)
I don't know a thing about taxes and no I'm not about to learn more than the basics.
It just annoys me with these comments that they're all crooks and thieves.
I remember at the beginning of covid how everyone (general use) on the internet was screaming how the scientists at the pharmaceutical companies were simply out to make money at the risk of people's health. Most of us were simply research scientists (like me) trying to fix a problem.
The bottom line is most people here are into investing and finances, I'm willing to bet the vast majority of the public is not.
Lol stepping off my soap box �� now ��
