I've been thinking about getting a financial advisor for a while now but honestly I have no idea how to tell if someone is actually worth trusting with my money. There are so many people out there with fancy titles and certifications and I genuinely can't tell what's legit. I'm in my early 30s, not rich by any means, just trying to be smarter with savings and maybe start investing properly.
I asked a few people in my life and got completely different answers which made me more confused. Does having a cfp certification actually matter or is it more about how they charge you? Would love to hear from people who went through this and figured it out the hard way.
How do you know if an investment advisor is actually good?

If you do not have a complex financial situation (are a landlord, own property, have multiple streams of income, do business in different countries), you very likely do not need a financial advisor. There is a lot of great investing advice out there if you just spend some time to read up on it.
Chances are you don’t need one
