Actually was thinking about this option but seriously, would anyone pay for financial services/plans when abundance of info is out there in the net

yes. not everyone has the time/capability/interest to do their own study/research/analysis but is aware enough of the importance of investing/wealth management.
+1 to Saitama. Considering the Malaysian population as a whole, DIY research for financial products and awareness is not the norm.
So far it pays the bills la. Not too bad.

Its a very niche business...
only very few survive...
A friend of mine tried to do, he quit his well paying job and explored into this for 2 years. Well it didn't work, so he went back to work for his ex employer.
I once attended talk by a personal consultant, she boasts about advising people on setting up durian farms, etc. Even developers invite her for talk to promote their properties.
As you are considering it as a second career, you can take your time to hone your skills and build your advisory business. only very few survive...

A lot of successful licensed financial planners colleagues have a background in accounting, tax, finance, and engineering.
