Allan’s Answer

Mr. Eli, I welcome your interest in becoming a financial advisor, However, the road to that actual position requires much study even more experience and of course, that means time in the job. Financial advisor will most likely have clients over the age of 35 and most likely nearing their retirement years. A person of that age would look a scant at taking advice from somebody 25 years old . So my advice would be get your college education get some real life experience find a way to go to business school get an advanced degree and find a mentor who will help guide you. As I said, it is a long road to get to the position you want to be. You will be dealing with other peoples life situations and their money. They are not apt to look favorably on somebody that is half or less their age. That’s just the way it is. Good luck, son
