You're listening to Ramsey everyday millionaires where we talk investing, retirement, building wealth, and outrageous generosity. Today's question comes from Charlie in Georgia.

I'm about to start interviewing financial advisors.

I'm trying to find someone that is not starting a career, but is my age or older.

Is it wrong to ask them their net worth? They will know

what mine is. Basically, I don't want a broke person managing my money. That's interesting.

I don't know that I've heard that one before.

Asking your financial advisor what their net worth is.

And clearly he's an older individual, we don't know how old, you know, it's all relative,

but he wants to work with someone who's kind of in the same life

stage i guess is as him versus a young buck

who's just getting started

well i don't know what my

smart best or pros net worth is i've never asked and I've never been

curious to be honest. It's not a bad question. It's a little awkward.

Trying to think

I guess I don't correlate their knowledge base with their income necessarily which you know correlates with their network.

Due to a degree it'd be nice to work with someone who has, you know, if they got $10 million, I want to know,

hey, what are you doing?

You know, there's a piece of that that's attractive.

Yeah, but, you know, if they've been doing it 20 years and they don't have any wealth then no I would
