FA1 I would say opening up my own firm is the dream and building my own team around me.
Then I’d read the non-compete very closely if there is one.
When looking at a firm to land in before you move to opening your own, think down the line of how easy it will be to transition from firm to your own.
I’d look at firms who use Schwab or TDA. That way, if you open your own firm, you can stay with TDA or Schwab and the transition with paperwork is easier and for your clients peace of mind.
But has minimums in place of about $100K first year. Any advice on what should be my focus in the decision making process?
What’s your long time plan? Opening up your own firm? Going Indy? Or looking to find a good company that isn’t pushing their products?
