No financial plan is perfect; having no plan can be worse. The first step is understanding where you are today and what goals you desire to achieve. There are numerous financial planning calculators on the Internet that require you to input information to calculate an answer. If that information doesn’t accurately reflect your financial needs and wants, then the calculations are worthless. We have years of experience asking the right questions that can help you formulate the answers that fit your life so you can set your goals in a meaningful way. Then we’ll help choose the appropriate way to meet those goals and adjust course as needed.
Our commitment to our values and integrity means that our fees for service are transparent and never a surprise.

Most insurance needs boil down to the following:
- Life, Health, and Disability Insurance
- Long-Term Care Insurance
- Property and Casualty Insurance
- Annuities
Except for those wealthy enough to self-insure against all eventualities, everyone will need some or all of these products. Many insurance websites, agents, and companies can write you a policy — all of them promising the lowest rate and best coverage.
Most insurance needs boil down to the following:
- “What is the lowest rate buying me?”
- “What do I really need covered?”
- “How much coverage do I need?”
- “Do I understand what I’m purchasing?”
- “Is the company I’m dealing with financially sound?”
You should be presented with all the pros and cons of different products. You should be made aware of how agents are paid on different products so you can decide whether they’re working in your best interest or their own. With simple explanations, you should be able to understand how the product you’re buying works.
Personal Retirement Strategies
Seemed so easy years ago. You had your company pension, social security, and maybe some personal savings you set aside. You worked for the same company, did your best , and then moved to your golden years and everything just worked out. As they all say times change.
Here are some examples:
- Life spans have increased along with health care costs
- Pension plans have been replaced with 401k plans, putting the burden on the employee not the employer
- More job moves, career switching, and now the “gig” economy
Taking into account your individual life variables our financial planning process helps folks grow their assets leading up to retirement and then guides them though living off those assets. Sometimes, depending on client wishes, the planning process helps to pass those assets on to future generations as well.
