Be Wary of Free Advice
Be very wary of anyone offering "free" financial advice. Usually they are selling you something that offers them a commission. This commission can be as high as 6% for some mutual funds. The very worst offenders usually involve some form of "annuity" which locks you into expensive mutual funds and high commissions.
