MY MISSION The first time I remember standing up for injustice was on the playground during 2nd grade recess. A couple of bullies were picking on a scared girl. I marched up and gave these bullies a piece of my mind and the girl and I become best friends. After entering the Financial Services industry in 2007, I quickly realized there were many “bullies” that used their knowledge to intimidate clients into pricey products and services. What About Us Financial was founded in 2019 to stand up against the status quo in Financial Services. We are the 99% that deserve our own beautifully successful life. Money is power. It brings us security and confidence. Saving and investing is not only for the rich. We can all prosper and thrive through thoughtful budgeting, savings and investing. This is my mission in life – to empower the underserved so they may obtain financial freedom and success. MY EXPERIENCE I’m a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNERTM Professional (CFP®), a Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor (CRPC®), and hold a Masters in Business Administration (MBA) in Management Innovation & Change. I have the letters to demonstrate knowledge, but it is more important to convey my heart to demonstrate compassion. I am a Fiduciary, which is the highest standard of client care. I must always act in the client’s best interest, even when it’s in opposition to mine. (This is big stuff! Do some Googling to see the efforts to hold all advisors to this standard. They have failed, so it’s still a scary world.) MY OFFICE My office is located inside my home in Bellbrook, Ohio. I see no reason to tax environmental (and personal) resources to open a fancy office space. We can meet at your favorite coffee shop, restaurant, office or kitchen table. And there is always video conferencing through Zoom, FaceTime or Skype.

Hi, I’m Brian Tegtmeyer, CFP®, a flat-fee financial advisor based in Dublin, Ohio. I specialize in tax-smart planning for new retirees who want to make the most of the first 10 years of retirement, without compromising the rest. The first years of retirement are often your healthiest and most active, but they’re also when the biggest financial decisions happen: Social Security timing, Medicare enrollment, withdrawal strategies, Roth conversions, and more. The choices you make now will shape the rest of your retirement. With over 15 years of experience as a financial advisor, I’ve dedicated my career to helping new retirees make confident, tax-smart decisions during this pivotal window. Here’s what working together looks like: *Reduce lifetime taxes with proactive Roth conversions and withdrawal planning. *Create an income you can’t outlive. *Navigate Social Security and Medicare with clarity and confidence. *Keep your plan updated as life and tax laws change. I intentionally serve a limited number of families so every client receives high-touch, personal guidance directly from me. My flat annual fee means no commissions, no hidden costs, and no percentage-of-assets charges. You’ll always know exactly what you’re paying and exactly what you’re getting. I’ve seen too many retirees look back with regret, wishing they had enjoyed their healthiest years more fully. My mission is to make sure that doesn’t happen to you. When I’m not helping clients plan their retirement, I’m likely with my wife and our three kids, cheering at gymnastics, biking, playing pickleball, or schooling my kids in a game of four square.
