  • How do you get paid?
    As your financial advisory team, we are compensated in several ways and offer a flexible fee structure to accommodate various client engagements. Our two primary fee arrangements are: Direct Fee for Financial Planning – This can be a flat fee or an hourly rate, providing independent, valuable advice without any connection to investment or insurance products or a long-term commitment. Percentage of Investment Assets – This approach is based on a percentage of the assets we manage for you through our strategic partners. It fosters a long-term financial planning relationship and may reduce or eliminate direct fees for ongoing advice. Additionally, Prairie Wealth Planning Consultants Ltd., as an Associate General Agency, offers insurance products when needed. In such cases, we may receive a commission from the insurance companies we are contracted with for providing advice and service specific to those insurance needs. Regardless of the option you choose, we are committed to full fee transparency, ensuring you receive planning and advice that is always in your best interest—no exceptions.
