First, make a list of names of possible financial
advisors. To get started, take the following steps:
• Ask family, friends, other advisors,
and coworkers for referrals.
• If you need more names, call professional
financial planning organizations and ask for referrals to advisors
near you. Some organizations to contact are:

Don’t rely on just one or two recommendations;
develop a list of several names. If you don’t feel up to the
effort this will take, ask close friends or relatives to help you.
