FAQs

Answers to common questions

Still Wondering? Reach out below, and we're happy to help.

Do I really need a financial planner, or can I do this on my own?

+

You can do a lot on your own. We’re most helpful when decisions get bigger or more complex, like retirement timing, equity compensation, taxes, business cash flow, or a move. We bring structure and a calm outside perspective so you can act with confidence instead of guessing.

Do you work with clients who are not in Charleston?

+

Yes. Charleston and the Coastal Southeast are our home base, and many clients work with us remotely. The experience is personal either way, with meetings and follow-through designed to be simple and consistent.

What is it like to work with Flip Flops and Pearls?

+

We start with your life and what you want next, then build a clear plan and help you follow through. You’ll get thoughtful guidance, proactive follow-through, and a steady partner as life changes. The goal is for money to feel lighter and more organized.

We’re doing well, but it still feels messy. Is that normal?

+

Very normal. More income often means more accounts, benefits, tax questions, and decisions. We bring order and clarity so you feel organized and supported, without having to think about finances every day.

What is a fiduciary advisor, and why does it matter?

+

A fiduciary is obligated to put your interests first. That means recommendations should be based on what’s best for you, not what pays the advisor more. Even if you don’t work with us, we strongly encourage working with a fiduciary.

What does a typical first meeting look like?

+

Your first meeting is an introductory conversation. We’ll get to know your situation at a high level, what you’re looking for, and what feels most important right now. We’ll also explain how we work, how our fees work, and we’ll both assess whether it’s a good fit. If you decide to move forward, the next step is a deeper planning meeting where we gather documents, ask more detailed questions, and start building the plan.
