This category includes certified financial planners (CFPs)—who create detailed financial plans and often also manage money—as well as financial advisers who invest and manage portfolios. Fee-only advisers don’t accept commissions or referral fees—a practice, they say, that keeps them free of bias. Most charge a flat fee, an hourly rate, or a fee based on a percentage of assets. “Minimum” is the minimum investment portfolio handled by an adviser—though many take smaller portfolios from, say, young professionals who have the promise of higher future earnings.
