He was specifically talking about financial planners that their average income is approximately $60,000 a year and they are telling us how to become financially free.At times I see people giving advice to people here on BP and they have very little if any real estate.

Perhaps you are a financial planner and are licensed, I hadn't considered that possibility.

I’m a strategic planner with a strong bias for action and am looking to make a move in 2019.

You want a financial planner, not an insurance person who "does" financial planning.  

I purposefully designed my fees to decrease (much faster than most other planners) as you have more assets.

A phone call to a planner might help a lot.

Most CPAs have financial planner license. 

A couple thoughts:Call the city's planning department and ask for a planner of the day.
