What's the difference between a financial planner and a financial advisor?

A financial Advisor provides a vast spectrum of advisory investment management, debt repayment, tax planning, estate planning, retirement planning, insurance depending on your need, whereas a financial planner helps you create a financial plan to help you meet your goals. While the work of a financial planner & a financial overlap at a certain point, there is a fine line of difference based on cost, goals & way of working between the two.

How much money should you have before getting a financial advisor?

The cost of a financial advisor depends upon factors like experience, certifications & the type of financial advisor. Cost varies as per the type of financial advisor you choose as no one-size-fits-all compensation option for advisors. The most common ways a financial advisor is compensated are fee-only, hourly rates, commission-based, fixed flat rates & percentage of the account. You need to talk to your advisor about the cost involved before hiring the one.

What type of financial advisor do I need?

Given a wide variety of financial advisors, if you are unable to analyze the type of financial advisor you need, you should consult an advisor who can look at the complete picture. In general terms, the CFP or ChFC certified financial advisor is a preferred choice as in order to achieve the certification one needs a good amount of hands-on experience.
