Check out XY Planning network. I'm an ISTJ, and I knew early I wasn't going to be happy long-term in the current environment. If you are serious, its great to be independent and there are a lot of intermediates that will do a lot of the back office stuff. You can then build a niche around the type of people you work best with. Shoot, you could even run a practice centered on neurodiverse clients, because the internet makes it possible for you to narrowly market to whomever you want. I used to have a 10 million a quarter quota. Now, I can run a lifestyle practice around what I need on a fraction of the volume. The first 2-4 years are going to suck (I'm in year 2 benchmarking above average) but my only regret is not doing it sooner. When you run your own firm all you have to answer. Is how can you make a great offer for 50-80 people. You can be the wrong fit for 99.9% of the financial planning/investment public, and make a decent living.
