Value of fee-only investment advice

Which do you feel more comfortable with—an advisor who is compensated based upon quality advice, or based on what products they sell you?

 

When you work with Samalin, your priorities (not ours) come first. We operate on a fee-only model, which we believe is the only method that truly minimizes conflicts of interest in the advisor-client partnership.

 

In other words, we don’t receive financial rewards or commissions from any third-party institutions—enabling you to feel confident that our advice has only your best interests at heart. Our compensation is based strictly on an hourly rate, a percent of assets managed, a flat fee, or a retainer.

Fidelity Investment Custodian

Your accounts are held in your name and your name alone and are custodied at Fidelity Investments.  You’ll receive an independent statement of your accounts directly from Fidelity. Your accounts are insured by the SIPC, up to the value of their holdings. You can view your portfolio anytime at Fidelity.com. Our funds are never commingled with yours at any time.
