In fact, the banks are still resisting cleaning up their act.<\/p>\n<p>People just don\u2019t trust financial advisors so any advice they give is viewed as unreliable (because of their conflicts and self-interest) and therefore valueless.<\/p>\n<p>Fair enough!<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"is-information-a-perfect-substitute-for-personal-advice\">Is information a perfect substitute for personal advice?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-78147 img-responsive jetpack-lazy-image\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-1024x723.png\" alt=\"google-485611_1920\" width=\"980\" height=\"692\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-1024x723.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-800x565.png 800w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-600x424.png 600w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-768x542.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-1160x819.png 1160w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920.png 1920w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-1024x723.png?is-pending-load=1\" srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\"\/><\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-78147 img-responsive\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-1024x723.png\" alt=\"google-485611_1920\" width=\"980\" height=\"692\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-1024x723.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-800x565.png 800w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-600x424.png 600w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-300x212.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-768x542.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920-1160x819.png 1160w, https:\/\/cdn.propertyupdate.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/google-485611_1920.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"\/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p>20 years ago, if you wanted to find out how to invest in the share market you would have to go and see a financial planner or stockbroker because they were the gatekeeper of this information.<\/p>\n<p>Today, everything is a Google search away.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a plethora of information available \u2013 more than enough to help you develop your own financial plan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>However, information is not a perfect substitute for personalised advice.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, you need information and knowledge to give advice but there are two more important components that are required;

This is usually relatively easy to assess \u2013 most people know whether they are talking to someone that is a master in their field or not.<\/li>\n<li>Do you like the advisor? Your gut feelings are important \u2013 listen to them.
