Planning for retirement is overwhelming. You deserve a financial plan that addresses your goals and concerns first – not one built around product sales or a managed investment portfolio. I provide transparent financial planning designed to help you make informed decisions with confidence, without a hidden agenda. My planning process is a comprehensive 60-day financial planning engagement for a flat fee of $3,000. During our time together, we'll evaluate every aspect of your financial life, including: - Retirement cash flow projections - Tax-efficient retirement withdrawal strategies - Roth conversion analysis - Social Security claiming strategies - Investment allocation review - Estate planning coordination - Insurance review - Actionable recommendations tailored to your goals At the end of the engagement, you'll receive a personalized financial plan with clear recommendations and a prioritized action plan you can implement immediately. Financial Planning First Clients simply want objective and informed financial advice. My process always begins as a standalone financial planning engagement. There is no obligation to move your investments or purchase any additional services. My goal is to provide practical, unbiased advice that helps you make better financial decisions. Investment Management—If You Want It For those who want professional investment management, I offer portfolio management and ongoing financial planning designed to keep your investment strategy aligned with your retirement and tax goals. This service is entirely optional and can range between $3,000 to no more than $7,200 depending on account size. We can discuss whether ongoing investment management makes sense for your situation after your financial plan is complete.
