On this episode of Roadmap to Retirement, I am joined by John Howe-Wemett, CFP®, MS for a second time! We talk about navigating a career in financial planning going all the way back to picking a major in college. You’ll hear about John’s journey into the field, taking a more unconventional approach. We cover keys advice for young and new financial advisors, emphasizing the importance of immersing oneself in industry vocabulary, seeking mentorship, and taking career risks early. We wanted to highlight the significance of finding the right firm and the value of joining professional networks like the Financial Planning Association (FPA). We hope to provide valuable guidance for those uncertain about their career path in financial planning and underscore the need for patience and risks.
