Research by the Financial Services Council shows those people who received advice were almost $100,000 better off at retirement. In fact, the research shows that a 30 year old would save an additional $91,000, a 45 year old would save an additional $80,000 and a 60 year old would save $29,000 more than those without a financial adviser.*
