They are ALL a lot of parasites! There are lots of them advertising in the local
press. AMP have handled my matters, but I make no recommendations.

Be sure your chosen adviser is:
1. a 'proper authority' holder;
2. licensed;
3. qualified to at least CFP status.

My further advice would be to choose a 'fee for service' provider. The advisers who
rely on 'Trailing' and other commissions will, in the end, cost you a lot more!

Read last week in the Fin Review that 'wealthy' australians consider 95% of financial
advisors are untrustworthy because they take commissions ie they're salesmen. Best
do your own legwork!
