Do financial planners have a set fee or do they charge by the hour?

Answer:
Most financial planners will give you a free consultation. Once you go to that and they determine what you need, they will tell you how you will be charged. If they'll only need to see you one hour every month, they won't charge you what they would charge someone they see every few days due to bigger holdings. So it really varies on how big of a customer you'll be.
