Can't I just figure this out myself?
Yes, you can work on this yourself. A second set of eyes gives you another view without taking control.
The fair worry
You built the savings and may have spent years learning about money. I respect that work. Asking for help doesn't erase it.
The answer
Saving and spending through retirement raise different questions. Your balance tells you what's there. Income and bills show what it needs to cover. Money you want within reach is another part of that picture.
You may already have those parts well in hand. The consultation lets you compare them with someone else and spot a question worth a closer look.
You decide what to use, what to leave, and whether to keep researching. Taking the meeting doesn't require a change to your approach.
At your consultation
Your retirement advisor will look at YOUR numbers with you. You keep the decision.
