About
Retirement Planning Specialists - Midwest, LLC serves individual clients with financial planning, consulting, and public educational seminars and acts primarily as an intermediary to outside portfolio managers; the firm reports servicing roughly 200 clients. It does not manage client assets directly and instead refers investors to a third-party manager for investment implementation.
After collecting client financial information and objectives, the firm recommends and helps onboard third-party money managers, monitors their performance, and reviews quarterly statements while the third-party managers retain trading discretion. Financial planning and consultation are offered separately and the firm runs free, educational seminars and workshops for the public.
The brochure discloses a June 2024 consent order with the State of Nebraska alleging unregistered advisory activity, resolved with a payment of $8,720. Unlike many peers, the firm does not charge a direct percentage-of-AUM fee or provide portfolio management itself; its principals also maintain an affiliated insurance business and the firm receives referral and incentive payments from the third-party manager—conflicts the brochure discloses and describes procedures to mitigate.

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
