Empowering You to Live Your Best Financial Life
Our expertise in financial, investment, and retirement planning will guide your path to financial fulfillment.
What is Financial Planning?
Financial Planner. Financial Advisor. Investment Advisor. Or even an Investment Adviser. Do these terms create vibrations of stress in your life? I’m going to tell you exactly what I do for clients – not as a sales pitch, but so that you may be able to take some of this away and apply it in your life.
Protect Your Assets by Understanding Your Exposure
Many of my clients originally reached out to me because they have a lot of company stock and don’t understand what it is or when to sell it. They are aware they lack “diversification,” but don’t know what to do about it—or if diversification is a big deal at all.
Give a Job to Every Dollar You Have
In today’s busy world, you might often feel like you’re drowning in responsibilities to your family, coworkers, clients, and even your neighbors. There’s always someone or something saying you ought to be doing something.
Make Your Extra Cash Work For You
Some people are concerned about spending their extra cash, while others are concerned that they’re not investing it. In either case, this situation can easily be avoided through a simple process that makes your cash work for you.
Strategize Your Finances: Put Your Cash Where It Counts
Having more income than you spend feels good, yet it’s crucial for us to recognize that this is, in fact, necessary. If you ever want to spend any time without income in your life – whether it’s retirement, a sabbatical, or whatever – then you must earn more than you spend.
Optimizing Your Cash: Where to Put It
There are three important factors when it comes to holding cash: Liquidity, Risk of Loss, and Yield. If you are comparing alternatives and are only looking at yield, you will be giving up something in the other two areas of Liquidity and Risk of Loss.
Have a Cash Flow System
Every dollar you have should have a job. If you aren’t giving a job to every dollar then your dollars are working against you.
Focus on Cash Flow Over Your Entire Life
If your goal is to do everything you want in life and die with at least a dollar in your bank account, or whatever amount you want to leave to your kids, then there is a simple equation that will tell you if you are on the right track.
Focus on Actual Cash Flow
A lot of people like to use rules of thumb with their finances. Don’t fall for that. You are not average. No one is.
