About
Financial Life Designs LLC serves individual clients, including high-net-worth households, through fee-only financial planning and discretionary portfolio management. The firm manages roughly $38 million across a small client base and offers both comprehensive and modular planning engagements, retirement rollover guidance, and coordination with outside professionals to implement plan recommendations.
The firm’s process is planning-first, following a structured financial planning framework and using written investment policy guidance when requested. Portfolios are built from diversified allocations of equities, mutual funds/ETFs and fixed income, informed by both fundamental and technical analysis and by portfolio-construction tools such as modern portfolio theory and risk-adjusted measures; the firm typically operates with discretionary trading authority and conducts ongoing monitoring and annual reviews.
What is distinctive is the small advisory team with relatively high assets per client, which corresponds with a relationship-focused delivery model and separate, plan-specific billing for ongoing plan review (fees for those reviews may be waived if the firm also provides portfolio management). The firm is fee-only and receives certain custodial support and economic benefits from its custodian, a relationship the brochure discloses as a potential conflict of interest, and it leaves proxy voting decisions to clients rather than voting client proxies itself.

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 referrals are provided by FinanceHQ LLC ("FHQ"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment adviser. We may be compensated by participating advisors. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
By using our service, you agree to the Warmer Terms of Service and FHQ Advisory Agreement, and acknowledge Warmer's Privacy Policy. Please review FHQ's ADV Part 2A and Form CRS. Logos provided by Logo.dev
