Time/week spent: 5h - 15h

As a financial planner, the time commitment can range from 5 to 15 hours per week. Initially, more time, around 10 to 15 hours, might be needed for setting up client relationships, understanding financial goals, and creating personalized plans. This could involve market research, client meetings, and data analysis. As you establish your client base and processes, the time spent can decrease to around 5 to 10 hours per week. This time is typically dedicated to client follow-ups, monitoring investments, and staying updated on financial trends. Online communities indicate that the time demand for this hustle can vary based on the number of clients and complexity of their financial situations.
