After over 20 years assisting hundreds of families, we have seen unexpected life events consume family wealth both before and after retirement. These include sudden market fluctuations, health and long term care issues, estate mismanagement, and improper tax planning.

The Four Pillars of Retirement™


Through our proprietary financial planning process, we integrate all the most important areas of your finances -- Investing and Income, Risk Management, Estate Planning, and Taxes into a cohesive plan.


                                 Pillar #1: Investing and Income

                                                                     Make sure you never run out of money. 

Wild market volatility can quickly derail your ability to create consistent retirement income, especially over the span of 20-to-30-years. Without proper planning, this can lead to a retiree's greatest fear—outliving your money. Our most essential responsibility to you is to create a reliable and consistent stream of income to last as long as you do.

We help you accomplish this by:

  • Creating an Income Plan - A written income plan  tells you where your income is coming from, and when you will begin to access it. An income plan provides you with a realistic and secure roadmap designed to sustain you throughout your retirement years. 
  • Maximizing Social Security - As the largest stream of income for most retirees, choosing a strategy that maximizes your benefits can make a tremendous difference to your retirement income goals.
  • Ensuring Stability of Your Investment Income - Our Complete Portfolio Investment Strategy allocates and diversifies your savings into three different spheres of investments to balance growth, liquidity and asset preservation.


Pillar #2: Risk Management

                                                   Avoid investments that could put your hard-earned money at risk.

We will consider your risk tolerance level, and make data-based recommendations against investments that may not be worth making. Especially those that could put your life savings at risk.

Examples include:

  • Money lost due to dramatic downturns in the stock market. These could reduce the number of retirement years your income and savings can support.
  • Pensions lost when a spouse unexpectedly passes away. This could mean a dramatic change in quality of life without a backup plan.
  • Losing your life savings due to a significant healthcare event for one or both spouses. This could rapidly burn-through resources needed now and and for the surviving spouse spouse later on.
  • Loss of your retirement savings by living longer than expected. This is usually compounded by the need to hire caregivers.

Each of these areas can threaten to deplete your savings prematurely if not addressed in your financial plan. We provide a thorough assessment, no matter what your net worth, and deliver a proactive plan with coverage options to help manage future risk.


Pillar #3: Estate Planning

                                                                      Be sure your assets pass to those you love!

Few people have a clearly defined estate plan for disposition of their assets and personal belongings through to their loved ones because they wither haven’t found the time to put a plan together or are just confused about where to begin.

Because different assets pass to different people in different ways, we believe estate planning should maximize the value of your assets and preserve them for your intended recipients.

The Balanced Estate Planning Model© identifies the 3 primary types of property that you can own, and the 3 best ways to transfer these assets to your loved one. By completing this exercise together, we can help ensure your estate passes to the right folks, at the right time, in the right way.




Pillar #4: Taxes

Don’t pay more in taxes than is absolutely required. 

The fourth and final pillar of retirement planning is taxes because it's not just about what you make, but what you keep! Given the overwhelming national debt that continues to grow with interest, there is a very real possibility that taxes will increase during the next 2 to 3 decades. Taxes have become a maze of complexity that can be challenging to navigate.

You need advanced tax planning tactics used by businesses and non-profits that may not be widely used or understood by the general public. We help you utilize tax strategies to future-proof more of your hard earned money.
