Wealthy investors struggle to find hourly fee-only financial advisers

Original: I’m rich, and I’d like a seasoned financial adviser who charges by the hour. Why is this so hard to find?

A wealthy investor is asking why it is so difficult to find an experienced financial adviser who charges by the hour rather than on commissions or assets under management. The question, raised in a MarketWatch personal finance column, taps into a wider frustration among affluent clients who want straightforward, conflict-free advice without being pushed into long-term managed products or percentage-based fees.

Why now: Fee structures in financial advice are a growing source of debate as more investors push back against percentage-of-assets and commission models.
