Top early retirement planning financial advisors in Colorado

The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.

You might consider early retirement planning if you're aiming to leave your job well before the traditional retirement age and want to ensure your savings last through a longer retirement. A common mistake is underestimating how long your money needs to support you, which can lead to running out of funds too soon.

  • Withdrawal strategy clarity. Ask how they plan your spending to balance enjoying retirement now and preserving funds for later years.
  • Healthcare cost planning. Early retirees often face a gap before Medicare; confirm how they address insurance and medical expenses during this period.
  • Income source sequencing. Understand how they recommend drawing from different accounts to minimize taxes and penalties over a potentially long retirement.

Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.

Steve S

CFP®

Eldersburg, MD

ABEL Financial Management Co.

Hi, I'm Steve. I've loved financial planning ever since I was a kid watching the ticker tape on CNBC as my mom, a homemaker learned about finances herself. I grew up in a very frugal household who taught me about working hard and saving for the future. My mother was a homemaker or "domestic engineer" as she calls it and my father was a federal employee. I was fortunate to be introduced to Rita Abel and become the owner of her small, family owned financial planning firm in 2019. Today we work with approximately 60 families. What makes us unique is our passion to be "accountability partner's" for our clients to ensure they take care of the important financial matters in their lives. We are part financial advisors and party financial therapists for our married couples but most importantly we are organized, proactive and have a passion for financial planning. Looking forward to meeting and if you want to know more, I encourage you to read our google reviews online. Just search "Abel Financial Reviews" in google.

CFP®, RICP®, Series 65

Houston, TX

Refined Wealth

After nearly a decade in corporate finance at Phillips 66, I now help high-income professionals and their families with investment, tax, and retirement planning. Before launching Refined Wealth, I completed the CFP® education program at Rice University and gained hands-on experience at two Houston firms, where I was part of teams that collectively served over 250 families and oversaw more than $650M in client assets. I also earned advanced certifications in tax planning (TPCP®) and retirement income planning (RICP®) to deliver more targeted advice. Now I’m building the firm I’d want for myself, my family, friends, and former colleagues. Most of my clients are: ◻︎ High-income professionals (O&G, medicine, sales, dual-income households) ◻︎ Retirees with complex assets and income sources ◻︎ Families navigating liquidity events (real estate sales, inheritances, business exits) Refined Wealth is an independent, fee-only fiduciary firm built on transparency and alignment. No product sales. No commissions. If this resonates, let’s connect for a complimentary introductory call to see if we’re a fit.

We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
