Get a free investment makeover from MONEY magazine

Thank you for your interest. We are no longer seeking candidates for this story.

For a story that will run in MONEY's January/February 2011 issue, the magazine will be pairing five different families with a financial planner for a free portfolio makeover. In each case, a professional adviser will suggest a new investment plan tailored to the family's goals and financial situation, and be able to address other financial concerns.

We'd like to find families soon, so if you think you'd like to participate, please send an email to MakeMeOver@moneymail.com. You'll get an automated reply explaining what information we need from you to consider you for a makeover.

We're particularly interested talking with families who have concerns regarding risk and simplicity. Do you wonder whether you are taking too much risk with your investments? Or do you think you might not be taking enough risk? Are your investments so complicated that you can't keep track of them? Or do you worry that you have too many eggs in one basket? If you'd like some answers to these questions, please let us know.

To get an idea of what these makeovers look like, you can check out this story from a past issue:
