What can personal financial advisors switch to? AI or robots touch about 3h 4m of a typical 8-hour shift for personal financial advisors, nearly all of it on tasks AI or robots have done on their own somewhere. The jobs below use many of the same skills, and less of their day is touched today. The closest fit is fundraisers: 40m touched, with median pay 31% lower.

Matches come from O*NET's ratings of the skills, knowledge and work activities each job uses. "To build up" lists the skills each option rates as clearly more important than personal financial advisors do today. "Touched" is time on tasks with documented AI use or robots working in real workplaces. Treat these as starting points: pay, openings and requirements differ by state.
