The biggest worry I hear from clients!!
“What if I run out of money in retirement?”
A recent Allianz study found 72% of respondents are fearful that market volatility, inflation, and tariffs will prevent them from maintaining their planned retirement lifestyle.*
We help you make a smooth transition from the accumulation phase, where you’ve built up assets in accounts like your 401(k), traditional IRA, and Roth IRA into a personalized retirement income strategy.
Your plan coordinates all of your income buckets: 401(k)s, IRAs, and Roth IRAs, Social Security, Pensions and Annuities into a single tax-efficient withdrawal strategy.
Your plan includes year-by-year cash flow projections and is built to handle inflation, Long-Term Care expenses, taxes, and market volatility, so you can retire with clarity and confidence.
We blend dependable income sources with smart distribution planning that manages Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) and minimizes tax exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What topics are reviewed in the Retirement Ready Roadmap?
You will receive a tailored Comprehensive Needs Analysis based on your unique situation. Together, we will review key areas such as income sources, business entities, expenses, assets, liabilities, personal and financial goals, and estate planning components including wills, trusts, and powers of attorney. This holistic analysis helps create a clear picture of your financial landscape and ensures your plan is aligned with your long-term objectives. We also focus on strategic areas that drive your retirement success, including personalized asset allocation models, tax-efficient strategies, and distribution planning. Our process incorporates life protection in case of unexpected death, income protection in the event of disability, and long-term care planning that minimizes the impact on your estate. Additionally, we review your Social Security benefits and help identify optimal claiming strategies based on your specific circumstances. Estate planning guidance is provided to help maximize wealth transfer and reduce potential tax burdens.
This almost sounds too good—what’s the twist?
The Retirement Ready Roadmap is offered at no cost and with no obligation.
Why? Because everyone deserves a clear view of their financial future. This roadmap is designed to help you make confident, informed decisions whether we move forward together or not.
It’s not a sales pitch. It’s a starting point. And the first step is a conversation.
How do you get paid? It’s a smart question and one I appreciate.
I’m compensated in one of two ways. If we decide to work together on an ongoing basis for wealth management, compensation comes from a transparent asset under management fee. For insurance-related strategies, compensation is paid through commissions by the insurance carrier and never comes directly out of your pocket.
Where are my assets held?
All your investment assets are securely held with trusted third-party custodians or top rated insurance carriers. This means your accounts remain in your name and under your control, while I serve as your advisor to help you make informed, strategic decisions. You maintain full transparency and access at all times.
Will I ever ask you to write a check out to me personally?
Absolutely not and I wouldn’t want it any other way.
Your funds are always held securely in your name with trusted custodians. I will never ask you to write a check to me personally. My role is to guide, advise, and help you make confident financial decisions not to handle your money directly.
It’s about transparency, trust, and doing what’s right every step of the way.
What if I already have an advisor?
Fantastic, I respect that relationship. Many of the people I work with already had an advisor when we first connect. In fact, many continue to work with their existing advisor while also partnering with me.
Your current advisor may specialize in one area like life insurance but may not offer comprehensive wealth management or retirement income planning. Or vice versa. That’s where a second perspective can add real value, especially when coordination between strategies matters most.
>My approach is collaborative and complementary, not competitive. I’m here to help fill the gaps, offer clarity, and ensure your entire plan works together to support what matters most to you.
Does it make sense for me to have Retirement Ready Roadmap?
That’s one of the smartest questions you could ask. The earlier you start planning, the more options and control you’ll have. The Retirement Ready Roadmap isn’t just for people close to retirement, it’s for anyone who wants to make confident, strategic decisions, whether retirement is 5 years away or 35. Starting early gives your money more time to grow, increases flexibility across account types like Roth IRAs, 401(k)s, and HSAs, and allows you to adapt as life changes whether that’s a new job, marriage, kids, or planning your legacy. Most importantly, it helps reduce stress by avoiding the need to play catch-up later. Think of it like planting a tree. The best time was yesterday. The next best time is today.
