Trends in retirement, taxes, and technology are shaping the advice industry, according to a recent article.

Getting married? Find a financial advisor

Planning a wedding involves finding the hall, a caterer, and a DJ, but what about a financial advisor? A 2013 survey of 191 certified divorce financial analyst professionals noted that 22% of married couples end up getting a divorce due to money issues. The survey also found that incompatibility and infidelity are still leading causes of divorce. But money issues are often in the background. The article noted an advisor can help couples set up a budget, save for goals, plan for risks, and create a financial plan.
