As fiduciaries, we’ve discovered over the years that the idea of financial planning can be intimidating for some. In people who fear they haven’t saved enough or should have started saving sooner, the idea of financial planning may even produce feelings of guilt, anxiety, or shame.
For example:
You’re currently doing well for yourself financially, but wonder if you should be doing more to plan for the future.
You have a job you enjoy that pays the bills with even a little left over for saving. You’re able to travel and occasionally indulge without worrying about making ends meet. Still, you have unanswered questions in the back of your mind about your financial future.
These questions might include:
- How much should I save?
- Have I already saved enough?
- Am I saving in the right kind of account?
- What am I missing when it comes to a retirement plan?
- Should I be investing my money , and , if so, where?
- What’s the best way to manage my taxes?
You’re wondering how to manage the financial rewards that come with your success.
You’ve worked hard in your field and have just started out at a new, high-paying job. Or, you’re leaving that high-paying job to start a new business of your own. Either way, the future’s looking bright, and you’re proud of what you’ve accomplished. Still, you want to make sure you’re safeguarding your successes.
You want answers to questions like:
- Where should I invest my money?
- Now that I’m in a higher income bracket, what’s the best approach for managing my taxes?
- What’s the best way to jumpstart my retirement savings?
- What’s the most tax-efficient way to make a charitable donation or help my children or aging parents?
You want to know answers to these pressing financial questions,
but your gut instinct tells you to not rely solely on Google searches or the advice of friends. Still, you’re not sure if you actually need a financial advisor. Do you even have enough assets to work with an advisor? Does your income allow for the cost?
