Getting Your Dream Car
There is a lot more to planning for the day when you work by choice and not by necessity than just a magic dollar amount. Anyone who says that is all you need to know is not someone you need to know.
Investment Management
We will help identify your risk tolerance and risk capacity to make sure you can sleep while your investments are at work. This service starts with a detailed analysis of your current holdings. We then use that information along with your Risk Number® and a develop a plan to put and keep your investments on track to serve your goals.
Financial Planning
We will help put together a plan to cover a limited area of your financial life. This plan will help answer a specific question you may have about a particular item in your financial future. Some common examples include college planning, employee benefit optimization, and employer retirement plan savings.
Comprehensive Financial Planning
We will review your entire financial life and provide you with a detailed analysis of everything we see. We will systematically address every area to make sure you are getting the most out of your financial resources. This is our top level service that helps keep you ahead of the game while not breaking the bank due to it. Any financial service that we can provide is included with service at a reasonable cost.

Complimentary Services
To help with the small challenges by keeping people tackling the small steps we provide a few complimentary services. Those services include Estimate Family Contribution computation for college-bound students. We also provide a “Retirement Readiness” Check-In where we review your retirement plan to see if it is on track. We also provide a free second opinion. We will review another advisor’s recommendations and provide feedback on how we would approach the issue be it the same or different. Sometimes having a second person agree with your plan gives an added measure of comfort when implementing it. We can also provide a no-cost phone consultation to address issues that can be solved with a fifteen-minute conversation. No sense in nickel and diming someone over something simple
