FPNW is a fee-only fiduciary that supports the Do-It-Yourself investor and those just getting started.
FPNW has four offerings:
Deep Dive – Reviews ten key financial topics and generates a detailed “To-Do List” for your implementation.
Comprehensive Financial Plan – A detailed projection of your financial future that answers questions like: “Am I on track for retirement?” “Are my investments too conservative? Or too risky?” “How should I save for a home or college?” “Is my current financial advisor doing a good job?”
Let’s Get Started – You seek coaching on how to set up your financial affairs from 401-(k) plans at work or savings plans for the self-employed, investing to basic banking and insurance.
Projects – Maybe it’s reconstructing your cost basis or you’ve inherited a mess from a parent. Planning for the estate taxes levied by Oregon and Washington is important.
FPNW does not provide investment management services. FPNW helps clients either manage their own investments or locate other financial advisers who provide investment services.
As a fiduciary, your success comes first. FPNW does NOT sell any financial products and does NOT accept any outside compensation.
Previously I served wealthy clients. My goal now is to democratize the wealth creation process and to offer the same expertise whether you’ve got millions or only hundreds to invest.
FPNW’s Philosophy
Time on earth is our most important asset. Live accordingly and joyfully.
Over the long run, stocks and real estate outperform other assets classes with built-in inflation projection.
Take only as much investment risk as needed to reach your goals. The only correct allocation to stocks is one you're comfortable with and will stick to.
Low-cost, tax efficient Exchange Traded Funds and index funds allow you to craft a simple sustainable portfolio.
Tax-efficiency is key. Asset location matters.
Sustainable and ethical investing is extremely competitive with “mainstream” investments.
Diversify internationally.
