In terms of the Starting Salary for Financial Advisor, it depends on the firm that you will be working for. The suggestion that I have is that you reach out and apply to a training program with organizations such as Prudential, Smith Barney, American Express, Met Life, New York Life, so you can get hands on experience. They will also assist you with obtaining the license, pair you up with a Mentor and help you built clientele. Its a very aggressive industry and depending on your performance, you could take home about $60,000, Your First Year.
The salary/remuneration for a particular job is the market value for a particular profession and designation at the city/town where the office is located. Job postings at websites like Monster, Yahoo HotJobs and Careerbuilder carry information about salaries. The Govt Dept of Labor, (www.bls.gov) Bureau of statistics has information about median salaries for different professions and details of additional compensation offered. Other online resources are salary.com and payscale. Your salary will also depend on your educational qualification and how you handle your career.
