About

Financial Life Planners is an SEC-registered independent investment adviser that provides ongoing investment management and financial planning to individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients), families, trusts, corporations, and qualified retirement plans. The firm’s four-advisor team manages roughly $208 million in discretionary assets for about 298 client relationships, a client-to-advisor ratio that is higher than many peer teams.

The firm combines fundamental and technical analysis with a tactically monitored, customized portfolio approach, primarily using low‑cost mutual funds, ETFs, and individual securities while seeking tax efficiency through asset location and rebalancing. Financial Life Planners also uses third‑party platforms (Pontera for held‑away accounts and rebalancing and ShareBuilder for 401(k) services) to implement allocation and operational tasks for retirement-plan and held‑away accounts.

Notable distinctions include an affiliated insurance agency (FLP Insurance Services, LLC) and advisors who are licensed insurance agents that may recommend and sell insurance products for commissions, a relationship disclosed in the brochure. The firm also acquired the accounts of a specialist referral source (Smarter Divorce Solutions) and discloses ongoing referral/contractual arrangements, and it absorbs certain third‑party platform costs within its advisory fee—practices that clients should consider when evaluating potential conflicts of interest.

Warmer provides personalized recommendations and introductions to independent fiduciary advisors. We do not supervise advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.

Each advisor listed on our site is an independent fiduciary responsible for their own advice. Warmer may receive fees from advisors for participation or referrals; these fees are paid by advisors and do not affect the fees clients pay for advisory services.

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. Please review an advisor's Form ADV and do your own diligence before entering into an advisory relationship.
