Financial Independence Planning

Many people assume Financial Planning is about investing or picking certain financial products.

Over 30-40 years most people accumulate lots of financial stuff and lots of financial relationships. They have stock brokers, bankers, accountants, insurance agents and current and past retirement plan representatives. These representatives can usually explain about their specific product allocations, risks and taxes. But because they usually cannot recommend if you have enough to retire at any date, relocate, buy a vacation home, RV, boat, motorbike, take long vacations, make gifts to the kids, move to a 55 or over retirement community and not worry about running out of money. Also, they usually cannot provide overall tax or estate planning strategies.

There is a huge difference between planning for accumulation and planning for lifetime withdrawals and transfer of assets to your intended beneficiaries. A certified financial planner or financial advisor, like we are, have a responsibility to not only make suitable recommendations, but to make recommendations which are in your bet interest and monitor the investments, and to contact you at least annually. (We routinely conduct quarterly check-up reviews.)
