Financial adviser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
You probably will want some advice due to a big chunk of change needing to be invested. Otherwise, I really believe most people don't need an adviser - just save a good chunk every year and diversify your investments. I have friends who shared with me the advice they got and it was pretty benign (admittedly they are all young and poor, so there isn't much of a portfolio to manage). Whatever you do with your portfolio, definitely have one or two air cooled Porsches in there!
