Your Free Retirement Assessment^™

You should consider hiring our firm if you want to:

1. Turn your nest egg into a reliable paycheck in retirement.
2. Lower taxes and keep more of your hard-earned money.
3. Improve after-inflation returns and reduce portfolio risk.
4. Spend more of your time doing the things you love in retirement.
5. Ensure your heirs have a trusted professional to lean on if something happens to you.

You can learn more about our expertise by checking out the Stay Wealthy Retirement Podcast, reviewing our case studies, or reading our blog.

There are three really important things about our firm that separate us from others:

1. We are retirement and tax planning experts for people aged 50+. Just like a Cardiologist would not perform foot surgery, we remain highly specialized and only work with retirement savers we have the expertise to help.
2. We limit the number of new clients we take on (1 per month). This allows us to provide unparalleled value and highly personalized service to the families that have entrusted our firm to help them.
3. We work as a team to service our clients. Instead of being "assigned" to a financial advisor, clients work with our entire team. Combining our resources and intellectual capital enables us to deliver high-quality advice and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

Most advisors have similar titles, designations, and service models. Many of us also work with similar vendors and custodians (e.g., Fidelity, Schwab).

The fact that it's hard to differentiate one advisor from another is EXACTLY why we offer a Free Retirement Assessment™.

If you think there is a potential fit between your needs and our expertise, the first step is to schedule a complimentary phone call.

Yes! We are licensed to operate everywhere in the U.S. We currently help approximately 105 families across 30+ states navigate retirement, reduce taxes, and invest smarter.

Our firm regularly meets with clients through Zoom video conferencing. Each virtual meeting is protected by a complex, unique password, and we adhere to strict security guidelines to protect your privacy.

It only makes sense to hire a financial advisor (or any professional!) if the value they provide exceeds the cost.

In other words, the time and effort saved by hiring an expert + the tax savings and retirement plan improvements need to exceed the fees being charged.

The Free Retirement Assessment we deliver will quantify the benefits you will receive so you can make an informed decision about hiring our firm.

Our transparent fee includes ongoing retirement and tax planning + tax-smart management of all investment accounts.

The blended fee is calculated based on a percentage of the total value of the investments we oversee and manage.

It is our ONLY form of compensation—we are not paid through commissions or any other revenue sources.

• 1.25% on the first $1,000,000 we manage
• 0.95% on amounts between $1M and $3M
• 0.70% on amounts between $3M and $5M
• 0.30% on amounts between $5M+
  

(Depending on the client's situation and scope of work, a flat annual fee may be considered instead of a %-based fee.)

Scheduling a Discovery Meeting with us is the first step in determining whether we are a good fit to work together.

We do our best work with retirement savers who need (and want!) a long-term relationship. Currently, our firm is not equipped to offer an hourly fee schedule or a one-time project fee option.

If you prefer a financial planner who offers these limited-term engagements, consider reaching out to the Garrett Planning Network.
