About
BG Financial Planning provides fee-only financial planning and investment advice to individuals and small businesses through limited-scope and comprehensive planning engagements billed on an hourly basis. The firm does not take custody of client assets and does not provide ongoing discretionary portfolio management.
The firm follows a long-term, fundamental buy-and-hold philosophy and commonly uses a core-and-satellite approach, recommending diversified asset allocations filled primarily with low‑cost index funds and ETFs and suggesting annual rebalancing. Engagements are consultative: the adviser gathers client financial data, delivers written recommendations, and—if the client elects—assists with implementation under a limited trading authorization.
Compared with many peers, BG Financial Planning’s reliance on hourly billing and its explicit absence of percentage‑of‑AUM or performance-based fees is a notable departure from common industry practice. It operates as a solo, fee-only practice led by a CFP certificant, does not accept commissions or soft‑dollar arrangements, and directs clients to maintain assets with independent custodians.

Not sure where to start?
We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.
For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.
Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to our Terms of Service and Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ’s ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
