Gen X advisors focused on entity structure planning (llc, s-corp) in the US

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.

If you're running a business or side hustle and wondering how to set up your company, choosing the right entity structure like an LLC or S-Corp can affect your taxes and legal protections. A common mistake is picking a structure based on what sounds simple, without considering how it impacts your personal liability and tax obligations.

  • Tax implications matter. Ask how each structure affects your income taxes and self-employment taxes, not just the paperwork involved.
  • Liability protection differences. Confirm how the advisor explains the legal protections each entity offers for your personal assets.
  • Ongoing compliance. Check if they discuss the administrative requirements and costs that come with maintaining each entity type.
  • Growth and exit planning. See if they consider how your choice supports future business growth or selling your company.

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

CFP®

Waterford, CT

In the Money Retirement Planning Limited Liability Company

I work with two types of clients: small business owners who need financial clarity, and families who want to make smarter decisions with their wealth. For business owners, I act as a Fractional CFO—helping you understand your numbers, improve cash flow, plan for taxes, and make better strategic decisions. Most owners don’t fail because of a lack of effort—they struggle because they’re making big decisions without a clear financial framework. That’s where I come in. For families, I serve as a long-term financial partner. Whether you're approaching retirement, building wealth, or navigating a major life transition, I help you align your investments, tax strategy, and long-term goals into one cohesive plan. At the end of the day, my job is to help you see clearly, act confidently, and build a life that actually works—not just one that looks good on paper.

I show people where they can save on taxes and I give clarity and strategies for how my clients can maximize the potential for what they can spend on themselves and give to others.

Out of curiosity, I spent time reading and researching various aspects of personal finance.
