Individuals
Managing your finances is an important component to any life plan, no matter what stage you may find yourself. Financial planning and investment management strategies help you manage your savings with a focus on the future so that you can live the life you want.
Depending on your stage of life, chances are you’ll have a distinct approach to saving. New graduates or young couples have different needs than retirees or mid-career families. But no matter your personal situation, we can help you develop financial habits that will lay a strong foundation for your savings.
Younger individuals and couples have a number of advantages working in their favor. Low insurance costs and a long investment horizon, combined with fewer fixed costs, can make for an excellent financial base. We can help you build on this position, while at the same time managing a debt load that might include student loans, car payments or a mortgage.
Couples planning for a first child enter into a new level of commitment—both personally and financially. Reviewing health, life, and disability insurance at this stage of life is crucial to ensuring an adequate safety net.
Mid-career professionals typically have higher incomes than younger investors—but they also carry more responsibilities. From mortgage payments to a child’s education, we can help you develop a financial plan that balances your priorities.
Retirees have worked hard in their careers, and now is the time for a well deserved change of pace. Income levels may drop in retirement. We offer to plan for this transitional period so that you can have the retirement you want.
In short, no matter your life stage, contact us today to start planning for the life you want.
Business Owners
Growing a business is more difficult then ever as business owners must confront a myriad of tax laws and regulations while trying to effectively create products or services, manage their employees, develop and cultivate clients, all while doing so profitably.
Often times business owners are too absorbed in their business to tend to their own financial needs, and they may overlook key planning considerations that could help their business grow and prosper.
For many business owners, their business is their primary retirement asset. After many years of building a successful business they expect to convert it into income for retirement by selling the business. Relying upon the business as the sole retirement asset runs the risk that it may not attain the value needed to produce the level of income needed.
Business owners today should prepare for retirement with the same level of diversification recommended for any retirement plan. Business owners have access to a number of qualified and nonqualified retirement plan options that can provide a cornerstone for their retirement income needs.
As well, business succession planning should be done well in advance to ensure that the value of a business does not diminish along with the owner's capacity to run the day to day operations.
We offer to help with these situations and many others that arise in the life of a business owner.
