Would you like to worry less…and enjoy life more?

Would you worry less if you were more confident that you

have the right financial plan?
are making the best decisions about insurance, estate planning, retirement planning, budgeting, and so on?
have the investments and the investment strategies that will allow you to reach your most important goals?
are paying only what truly you owe in taxes instead of giving the government what’s rightfully yours?
can realistically balance the demands of saving for retirement with the need to support aging parents, and save for college, too?

If you are like most people, you worry about your financial future. You are frustrated by conflicting financial advice, overwhelmed by the amount of information available, and distrustful of those who claim to know the answers. You’re wondering if you will ever achieve your goals and enjoy peace of mind. Where will the money come from to fund your children’s education or your retirement? How can you be assured that you’ll have the assets available to do what you want?

You can enjoy financial peace of mind.
When you visualize financial independence, what do you see? More opportunities for travel? Working only part time? Volunteering for a cause you care deeply about? The picture in your mind is like the cover of your personal puzzle box and your finances are the puzzle pieces. With the right help, you can put them together successfully.

We can help.
What usually happens is that you go to a stockbroker for investment advice, an insurance agent to buy insurance, an accountant for tax preparation, and an attorney for estate planning. All can give you great advice about their area of expertise, but it's a bit like deciding what the puzzle is based on only one piece. Is it any wonder that the pieces then don't fit together?

We specialize in “Sandwich Generation” issues.
Perhaps you’re not only planning for retirement. Your parents may be healthy now, but you wonder if they’ve set things up so you can help them if their health declines in the future. Or perhaps you’re already there, trying to navigate the health care system and coordinate their finances with government benefits, etc. You also may be wondering how to pay for your children’s education as well as your own retirement. If you’re not likely to get financial aid, you want to know how else you can get financial support. (You probably can!) We specialize in these situations.

What else makes us different?
We focus on your goals and work with all areas of your financial life—tax preparation and planning, investment strategies, insurance, estate planning, retirement planning, budgeting, and more—to create a financial plan that changes as your circumstances change. Instead of just telling you what to do, we work together with you, providing you with easy-to-understand recommendations and helping you implement them every step of the way.

We are fee-only financial advisors. We sell no products and receive no commissions. Instead, you pay us an annual fee for our objective, personal advice on how to achieve your financial goals. This annual retainer covers all the meetings necessary and allows you to contact us whenever you have questions or your life changes. Or if your needs are simpler, more specific, or more occasional, we can work with you on a per-project basis. Many people ‘try us out’ with a financial checkup, called a “Financial Fitness Review.” (Click here for our Services At-a-Glance.)
