Is that not allowed?
I can name many profession that charge fees and then make recommendations.
I wasn't thinking you had to generate enough revenue to survive from fees. Too bad it would be looked at as a conflict of interest.
I guess that doesn't apply to the medical, legal and many other professions.
Yes, but they aren't the financial industry. We are always assumed guilty until proven innocent.
To me, it is like the guy who goes and gets a Series 65 and then always sells FIAs. Even if you do it perfect, you are putting a big target on your chest.
I guess you could do reviews and charge fees and also sell insurance, but there better be plenty of other sales besides your fee clients.
