You spent the last 30+ years building your wealth. Now what? You saved, sacrificed, and built a bigger nest egg than you ever imagined. I help couples with $2-5 million of investable assets who are approaching or entering retirement figure out how to actually use the wealth they've built. The transition to retirement brings a whole new set of decisions: How much can we spend? Which accounts should we use first? When should we take Social Security? How much can we give our kids? Should we do Roth conversions? How should we invest during retirement? Are we going to run out of money? How should we think about long-term care? Are there any ways to pay less in taxes? At Buoyant Wealth, we focus exclusively on retirement planning. Most firms claim to do a little bit of everything. Generalists, we'll call them. Not us. Retirement planning is all we do, and we'd like to think we're darn good at it. Because the goal isn't just to grow your portfolio anymore. It's to help you turn your lifetime of savings into a retirement you can actually enjoy. Without constantly wondering if you're spending too much, of course. Based in Pennsylvania, I work with couples locally and virtually across the country.
