Money can’t buy happiness, but this study indicates paying a financial advisor could potentially help.

According to the Herbers & Company’s inaugural Consumer Financial Behaviors Study, “As individuals move past $1.2 million of assets, those who work with financial advisors rapidly increase in happiness, while those without advisors rapidly become less happy,”¹ 

The results of the study also suggest that those with financial advisors experience greater satisfaction outside of their relationship with money. Which high-net-worth individuals were happiest? Click here for a breakdown of the study.

Regardless of your current assets, if you’re looking for ways to work toward growing your wealth with discretion, minimizing your taxes or planning your retirement or estate, it could be a good idea to speak with a fiduciary financial advisor.

SmartAsset’s latest proprietary model reveals that working with a financial advisor could potentially add from 36% to 212% more dollar value to investors’ portfolios over a lifetime, depending on multiple unique, individual factors.² 

But finding an advisor can seem daunting, so we created a free tool to help match you with vetted financial advisors serving your area, each legally bound to work in your best interest.
