Answers to Commonly Asked Questions
-

However, know that not all financial advisors are the same. You can read more about how to find and choose a financial advisor here.

A financial advisor with a CFP® designation is the most widely recognized credential.
Regulated by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, CFPs® must pass a difficult exam and meet strict standards with respect to education and work experience. Better yet, CFPs® are held, by law, to a fiduciary standard, meaning they’ll always put your best interests above their own
-
You can enjoy financial and investment advice from a CFP® professional for only $69 a month. For those requiring more than just advice, we also offer planning, investment, and tax preparation services. If you have a specific need and prefer to pay by the hour, our consulting services are perhaps a great fit for you.

For starters, we’re an independent, privately owned registered-investment advisory firm (RIA). It’s for this reason that we’re held to a fiduciary standard, meaning we provide a higher level of client care than most other financial advisors and will always place your interests ahead of our own.
As a fiduciary, we are compensated by our clients—rather than products that pay high commissions. Therefore, you’ll receive advice to help you navigate and simplify the complexities of planning without any conflicts of interest.
We also offer a variety of solutions with no minimum investment or net worth prerequisites needed to become a client—making it super easy to work with us whether you’re just starting out or have saved significant assets.
What’s more, you will enjoy the opportunity to work with an experienced advisor with a CFP® designation, the top credential in the industry—no matter your level of engagement with us.
We’re tempted to ramble on but are kind of tight on space here. Be sure to schedule a no-obligation meeting so we can go into more detail and discuss how our services can help you and your financial needs.

-
Not at all. We’ve worked to ensure our services are fairly priced and affordable for everyone. For example, anyone can work with a CFP® professional to gain financial and investment advice for only $69 a month.

Typically, you will receive a monthly statement and quarterly performance report. You can opt to either receive these documents by mail or access them online.

Put simply—whenever you want! However, we do conduct periodic check-ins based on the services you’ve signed up for and may also reach out beyond our scheduled meetings to discuss any changes or opportunities you should be aware of.
-
Nope! It's completely up to you what (and how much) you want to invest with us.
