As a fee-only firm, Datapoint is paid only the hourly fees clients pay directly, a model David sees as the most transparent and fair. Most clients start with a comprehensive plan covering retirement, education, insurance, estate planning and investments, then return as questions or changes come up, or for an annual review. David caught the investing bug in high school from a hometown advisor in Albany, Georgia, earned a finance degree from the University of Georgia, and later spent two decades in tech specializing in database design and development. ## Frequently asked questions ### Is David Barfield a fee-only financial advisor?
