Hi there! I'm Ashley Rittershaus, CFP®, TPCP®, founder of Curious Crow Financial Planning, an advice-only firm dedicated to helping clients achieve the life they dream about and feel more confident managing their money on the path to financial freedom. I believe the concept of traditional retirement is outdated and that it is possible to live your best life now, while also taking care of your future self. Money is simply a tool to live the life you want. Whether you're interested in FIRE, changing careers, early retirement, taking a sabbatical, working less, financial independence, starting a business, or anything else, let's develop a plan to make it happen! I offer a flat-fee 6-month comprehensive financial planning engagement, during which we'll review all aspects of your financial life and develop a plan to get you where you want to go. During the first 3 months, we'll focus on building your plan and recommendations, over the course of 4 meetings. The next 3 months will be focused on implementing the recommendations and ensuring you are set up for success going forward. By the end of the 6 months, the goal is that you will have the planning recommendations implemented and will also have the skills, knowledge, and systems in place to feel confident managing your finances on an ongoing basis. Some of the areas we'll cover are: - Cash Flow Analysis - Financial Freedom & Retirement Projections - Investment Strategy - Tax Planning - Risk Management & Insurance - Estate Planning We'll also cover any other areas that apply to you, including: - Debt Management - Employee Benefits Optimization - Charitable Giving Strategy - Education Planning - Major Purchase Planning - and anything else related to your finances! Advice-only is a great choice for DIY investors or for anyone who prefers to learn how to manage their own investments, rather than delegating asset management to an advisor. I provide investment advice as part of my overall comprehensive financial planning services, without managing your investments or charging AUM (assets under management) fees. I'm based in the Greater Boston area, but provide 100% virtual services, which allows me to work with clients anywhere in the United States.
