We are the Retirement Experts for Hard Working, Middle Class Families

Our Clients

Our clients are the men and women who work at the plants. They are nurses, electricians, ironworkers, and mail carriers. They are the people who make sales calls. And, they are the folks who work hard to run a small business in our community. They have a common bond. They work long hours doing hard work. They figured out how to provide for their families, though it wasn’t always easy.

What We Do

We are here to help you transition from your career to the next chapter of your life—retirement.

We help you use the resources you have—Social Security, retirement savings, pension—to create a strong retirement.

We Believe

Your money needs to work its hard for you.

Your interests always come first. We don’t receive commissions for selling investment products. We want to create the best plan for your success at all times.

Scare tactics and high-pressure sales are a bad approach.

Planning for retirement isn’t an opportunity to scare you. Yes, there are always risks, and we will create a plan to address them. But we won’t try to scare you or use your emotions to sell you something.

A practical, common-sense approach leads to better results.

A plan can be a complex strategy that is hard to execute. Or it can be practical strategies that you understand and use to create a better future.

Optimism is a key factor to long term success.

Not every year is going to be good. But we believe the future is going to be better than the present.
