According to the video, an "advice-only advisor" is a financial professional who prioritizes the client's best interests and doesn't try to sell their own products. They are fiduciaries, meaning they are legally obligated to act in the client's best interest. Anita Kinoshita recommends them because of a negative past experience with a financial advisor who tried to sell her a product and caused her to cash out of her Roth IRA. She also points out that advice-only professionals don't charge assets under management (AUM) fees.
