investment advisor
Definition

Examples
My investment advisor convinced me to diversify into NFTs; now my portfolio is a pixelated graveyard of bad decisions.
After my investment advisor's hot tip on meme stocks, I rode the rocket to the moon—and straight back to ramen noodles.
The investment advisor stared at my portfolio like a chef eyeing a burnt soufflé, then whispered, 'We can rebuild it... better.'
Hiring an investment advisor felt empowering until their crystal ball predicted 'steady growth' right before the market sneezed.
