About

LifePoint Planning manages approximately $168.5 million for about 110 clients with three advisors, serving individuals (including high‑net‑worth clients) as well as employer retirement plan sponsors. The firm offers discretionary portfolio management alongside comprehensive financial planning, retirement‑plan consulting, and business‑planning services, with investment management and planning commonly bundled.

Investment decisions are guided by client‑specific investment policy statements and an emphasis on asset allocation using Modern Portfolio Theory and fundamental analysis, applying both strategic and tactical allocations. The firm uses third‑party managers and platform providers (including Betterment and Altruist), and employs a mix of passive index exposures and active quantitative/tactical strategies — in some accounts incorporating limited options strategies — while allowing clients to impose investment restrictions.

A notable feature disclosed in the brochure is that certain supervised persons are also licensed insurance professionals who may recommend and sell insurance products and receive customary commissions, a practice the firm identifies as a potential conflict of interest. The firm also offers alternative engagement structures (including flat‑fee and hourly planning options), provides retirement‑plan consulting, and suggests a $2 million household net worth for prospective clients while not requiring a formal account minimum.

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.

Find your advisor

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
