<prompt> Human: I work next to a guy whos wife teaches people about investments and all that jazz. I gave him my number so she could contact me and she did. I have set up an appointment for Monday after work. I have always been interested on how to expand my net worth. Ive looked online on how to invest but couldnt really get a good grasp on it... I also dont want to trust a blog on where I should be putting my hard earned money.I dont have any investments at all right now that I know of? I live in Canada and I constantly see 401k referred to on this sub but we dont have that, I think ours is just CPP, and even then I dont know how it all works. I want to come out of this meeting with as much knowledge as I can. Im also expecting her to propose an offer on what I should do and I dont really know how I feel about just trusting this person with my money because I assume shes making a chunk off of what I invest in. How can I guarantee shes looking out for my future as well as I am? Are these types of people on our side? Or is this like a bad car sales man. I would love to know what type of questions I should be asking and what kind of investments I should look out for when shes telling me about the different possibilities. Also how much money I should be putting into certain investments? I can link info if you guys request it. I did get a raise at work recently so a bit of my finances arent exactly in order as of right now. Im still trying to figure everything out. Appreciate it to whoever can help me out a bit :.  <response>: Does she teach people about investments or does she sell people investments? The difference is quite large.
