• • A financial planner is someone who uses the financial planning process to draw-up a plan with an objective to meet your life goals. The planner takes a “big picture” view of your financial situation and make financial planning recommendations that are right for you. He takes into consideration all of your needs – budgeting, saving, taxes, zakat, investments, insurance and retirement planning. He can also work with you on a single financial issue but within the context of your overall financial situation.
  
  
  • This makes the financial planner different more comprehensive in his approach than other financial advisors who may be trained only on specific areas of your financial needs.
