However, most financial decisions also have a strong emotional component. Do I downsize my house? When do I sell my business, or retire from my job? Do I help my kids and grandchildren financially while I am still alive so I can see them use the money? I have helped hundreds of families make these types of decisions and use money more effectively to reduce stress and create memories.

Financial Planning for Individuals |
Your comprehensive written financial plan will include: - All your financial goals - Net worth statement - Cash-flow chart - Insurance review - Investment plan - Probability of success and Range of potential outcomes |
Retirement Planning |
I will help you answer questions like: When can I afford to retire? Where will my income come from during retirement? How should my investments change once I am taking withdrawals from my portfolio? When should I collect social security? What distribution option should I select from my pension plan? What changes will we make to our spending, lifestyle, housing, etc.? |
Estate Planning & Trusts |
Estate planning is the process of deciding who will make decisions for you when you are no longer able to make them for yourself. We help you to organize your estate to make things as easy and straightforward as possible, and to name beneficiaries as well as specify the timing of distributions, contingencies, and any restrictions. We work with competent, trustworthy and cost effective estate planning attorney's to set up your affairs correctly. |
