Financial planning is the cornerstone of the advice and strategies I provide. I often describe it like a map, first assessing where you currently stand and where you aspire to be. Much like a GPS, my role is to guide you along the most effective path, helping you stay on track toward your goals despite life's inevitable twists and turns. Since circumstances can change unexpectedly, I believe it's crucial to regularly revisit and adjust your plan, ensuring it remains aligned with your evolving needs and aspirations. To create a truly personalized financial strategy, I begin by conducting a thorough assessment of your financial situation, goals, and risk tolerance. This involves gathering comprehensive information about your income, assets, liabilities, employer benefits, future financial goals, and any potential challenges you may face. By understanding the full scope of your unique circumstances, I can develop a customized financial plan that is precisely aligned with your priorities. I prioritize flexibility, considering key factors such as your age, career stage, family dynamics, and investment preferences. I also account for life events -- like marriage, children, home purchases, or retirement -- that can significantly influence your financial decisions. This approach ensures that your financial plan is not only proactive and adaptable but also evolves as your circumstances change. By continually monitoring your progress and making adjustments as necessary, I provide ongoing guidance that helps you stay on course and pursue your goals, no matter what life brings. When I'm not working, I enjoy spending quality time with my wife, Taylor, and our daughter, Ember. We're always looking for fun weekend activities to give her the best life experiences. Outside of family time, we enjoy hiking, traveling, and unwinding on the beach -- each offering a perfect way to recharge. Click here to schedule a complimentary meeting with me.

Peter Gellman is the Managing Member of Palmerston Group Advisors, L.L.C. Founded in 1997, Palmerston Group provides independent, unbiased financial and investment advisory services based on fundamental analysis and margin of safety principles. Peter Gellman has worked as a teacher, analyst, and advisor. Before starting Palmerston, he taught at Oxford as a member of its international relations faculty, as well as at Princeton, where he was Research Fellow and Lecturer in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. He holds a law degree as well as a Ph.D. in international relations.
Palmerston Group Advisors, a firm best known for its Margin of Safety discipline, built its strategy only after carefully studying the best in the business. Consider: 1. Few fund managers have genuinely market-beating records of ten or more years. 2. Most of this elite group uses a version of Margin of Safety, the skill of buying assets when "on sale" at a deep discount to their true value. Most excel in bear markets. 3. Few advisors strategically focus on these top managers or their investment ideas when creating client portfolios. Nor do many independent firms focus on these managers when offering allocation advice. In contrast, Palmerston sees these top managers as a huge asset for our clients. We start with what works best, and thus use Margin of Safety for all clients. For client portfolios, we use the ideas and often the (no-load) funds of managers with proven, profitable records.
