Future You Wealth is for high-earning professionals, through all life stages, who want to make the most of their life and money. We offer comprehensive wealth management services that will help you save for your future and achieve your financial goals. With our help, you can rest easy knowing that you have a guide and a partner on the path to financial independence. Client engagements are comprised of three key components: (i) Planning: building a baseline understanding as to where you are going, and how you are most efficiently going to get there. The primary goal we work towards is financial independence by a target age, affording you the freedom to direct your time as you desire. (ii) Investing: implementing the plan using evidence-based, low-cost strategic asset allocations, tailored to the needs of the individual. Portfolios are rebalanced periodically to remain in line with the investment plan, and tax efficiency is front of mind. (iii) Coaching: sticking to the plan and goals requires accountability, and we're our clients' accountability partner. Any time a life decision comes up that has financial implications, we are here to help, for example buying a home, getting married, starting a family, exercising incentive stock options, changing job or starting a business. Throughout our clients' wealth journey, we keep the "beyond wealth" principle front of mind: our approach to wealth management is not just about building more wealth, but also about how best to use that wealth to live a great life.

He holds a law degree as well as a Ph.D. in international relations.

About Palmerston Group Advisors, LLC

Palmerston Group Advisors, LLC

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.

About Honey Badger Advisors LLC

Honey Badger Advisors LLC

Our services are for you if you are serious about securing your and your family's future and want someone to help you with your best interest in mind. We will never serve interests of mega banks, funds, insurance companies, activists or global scoundrels like World Economic Forum. Our approach is not "sales strategies", we engage in collaborative and educational work. Which means we are going to work with you to fully understand the reasoning for every one of our proposals before anything is implemented. On the other hand if you have goals that are not consistent with prudent investment such as virtue signaling, ESG, get rich quick, ponzi schemes, fads, meme stocks, crypto, we are not for you. We cannot reconcile our fiduciary duty with such activities and would advise you to take business elsewhere.

About EPA Financial Services Corp

EPA Financial Services Corp

EPA Financial Services is one of the oldest financial services firms in Ocean County. EPA Financial Services was started in 1977 by Bob Richards and his wife, Jeanne, and together they developed a distinct style of financial services. When they started EPA Financial Services both Bob and Jeanne had envisioned the office to be a family-atmosphere office, where staff and clients alike could feel like they were at home and among people they knew. Since 1977, Bob has developed EPA Financial Services into a financial planning-based practice where the advisors offer a wide range of services, but much of it is based on the principles of financial planning. Along with his daughter Heather, who is also an advisor, Bob enjoys researching investments, the markets, and the economy. Heather now runs EPA Financial Services and continues to have the same vision for EPA Financial as her father and mother had all those years ago.
