Relaxed Wealthy People-100: Don't Waste Even Consultation Time
You can utilize financial planner consultation services for various life situations, such as reviewing insurance, investing, purchasing a home, or planning for retirement.
In addition to paid services, many free consultation services have recently become available, so I encourage you to make full use of them.
Among those I have consulted with in the past, there have been many "wealthy" individuals. While having a lot of savings and assets puts you in the "wealthy" category, it doesn't necessarily mean your life is secure. Some people, no matter how much wealth they have, are constantly plagued by anxiety and cannot help but worry.
On the other hand, there are also wealthy people who feel a sense of ease and composure. There was a common trait among these relaxed, wealthy individuals when they used consultation services: their questions and consultation topics were well-organized.
They are clear about what they want to consult on, and they have already thought through their own ideas and answers to some extent. If the FP provides the answer they expected, they confirm the professional's opinion as if they were checking the possibilities that lie beyond that.
Even if a path different from what they expected is presented, they are not particularly flustered because they have already thought through several steps ahead. As a result, while discussing a new plan, they have the leeway to think about the plan more deeply and carefully.
Having a certain level of simulation done means that the priorities regarding their requests are organized in their minds. This leads to choosing a more satisfactory plan from among several options.
There are also many people who come for a consultation without a clear idea, and that is perfectly fine; there is absolutely no need to study or acquire knowledge in advance.
However, if you are going to take the time to come for a consultation, I think it would be good to identify at least one thing you want to achieve or one point you are unwilling to compromise on.
And if it is impossible to achieve everything, thinking about or discussing with your family what can be deprioritized will help you see a vision for the future.
While exploring possibilities just a little bit ahead, try narrowing down your options, and whenever you feel stuck, please feel free to make full use of consultation services.
