Financial Planners Get More Clients With New Certification
Financial planners are getting new clients from a seemingly unlikely market sector:
U.S. federal government employees.
"Federal employee benefits programs are very complicated. Only the best trained financial planners are able to service this market," says Judy Snow, founder of Federal Employee Benefits Specialist, Inc. (FEBSI) (http://www.FEBSI.com) and developer of the Certified Federal Employee Benefits Specialist (CFEBS) training and certification program.
The CFEBS program equips financial planners, insurance agents, accountants, investment advisors, stock brokers, tax preparers, and other professionals with a thorough understanding of federal employee benefits and associated retirement planning. "Achieving CFEBS certification helps financial planners to learn the ins and outs of these benefits programs and to reach federal employees who are in need of quality financial planning services," Snow explained.

Thinking About Early Retirement? 10-Minute Quiz Determines Your Readiness
(ARA) - If you've delayed planning for retirement because it makes you feel a) old or b) financially inept, think again. With a little foresight, you could be out there enjoying life like other people -- maybe even before you reach the so-called "retirement age." Like many people in the prime of life, it's not unusual to think of retirement as such a distant idea that you avoid saving for it until next week, next year, next job. After all, who's got time to think about the "R" word? In reality, it's never too late, or too early, to start planning for retirement. Retirement used to be defined as what a person was no longer doing. More and more, however, retirement has come to mean what a person is can do.
Choosing a second career. Traveling to see the world. Volunteering in the community. Taking on a new hobby. Taking care of grandchildren.
If Mondays find you heading for the highway to work, but you'd rather be heading for the golf course to play, it might be time to consider...

Fee Only Financial Planners
While talking about fee only financial planners, one thing should be taken into consideration is that "Fee-Only" planners are compensated solely by fees paid by their clients, and do not accept commissions or compensation from any other source. The National Association of Personal Financial Advisors (NAPFA) is the largest organization of "fee-only" planners.
The main function of fee only financial planners is to develop a sound financial plan. A sound financial plan should be simple as well as practical. When there is complexity in the financial plan the operating executives will find it difficult to follow. It should be designed with a long-term view.
While designing the investment, financial and dividend policies, the long-term requirements of the concern are also to be considered. Sound financial planning requires vision and forecast.
