Financial Planning

Financial planning is the roadmap to a secure and fulfilling life, as YOU define it. We consult, but most importantly, we listen. We provide comprehensive planning to create a personalized financial plan. Not just for investments—but for everything from debt management, to college funding, to the retirement income generation you’ll need for a safe and comfortable retirement.

Our planning process starts with getting to know you and your needs in depth, to allow us to construct the financial plan you deserve. We create a comprehensive set of recommendations that may include:

• Cash-flow optimization
• Loss of income protection
• College funding
• Retirement funding
• Social Security maximization
• Risk management
• Charitable giving
• Estate planning
  

Financial planning is an ongoing and dynamic process that includes constant implementation and continual monitoring of course corrections. We are great listeners. With your feedback, we use our years of planning experience to assist you in making better informed financial decisions.

We guide and support clients in building a plan for income distribution after retirement.

Retirement income planning involves working together to identify retirement income needs, then the creation of:

• An in-retirement portfolio that, along with Social Security and any other income sources, provides steady income while allowing for needed growth.
• A spending strategy that can keep you from overspending—or living with unnecessary, fear-based frugality.

Proper estate planning helps to ensure your heirs receive the greatest amount of your wealth as possible, easily and efficiently. It often goes hand in hand with charitable giving.

We guide gifting to the people and causes that are important to you, in two ways: during your lifetime, and at the settlement of your estate.

Wealth takes a great deal of time and works to achieve, yet can be quickly lost. Thus why risk management is essential for those who wish to sustain wealth, and those who wish to pass it on to multiple generations potentially.

We identify acceptable levels of risk and reward so that together, we take the guesswork out of your financial future.
