About this listen

 This week on The Pete the Planner Show, we tackle a question from a listener couple in their 30s who’ve nailed the basics—no debt (besides the mortgage), a healthy emergency fund, steady retirement savings, and even monthly money check-ins that end in high fives, not fights. So… do they really need a financial planner? We dive into when DIY is good enough—and when a second set of (professional) eyes might help you uncover what you don’t know you don’t know. Whether you love spreadsheets or break into a cold sweat at the word “fiduciary,” this episode will help you figure out if it’s time to level up your planning—or if you’re already crushing it on your own. You’ll learn: The tipping point between DIY and delegation What a financial planner can (and can’t) do for you How to avoid blind spots even when you're doing everything "right" It's a practical, honest conversation for anyone who's ever wondered: Do I need help, or am I just fine?
