If you’re nearing retirement and want to build a plan that lasts—covering income, investments, and taxes—we’re here to help.


Let’s make sure you’re in the right place.

Who We’re a Good Fit For

We work best with individuals and couples who:


  • Are within 5 years of retirement or have recently retired
  • Value proactive, year-round planning
  • Want investments, income strategy, and taxes managed in one coordinated plan
  • Are ready to make decisions and implement changes

Who We’re Not a Fit For

We’re not the right partner if you’re:


  • More than 5 years away from retirement
  • Only want a one-time review or second opinion with no follow-up
  • Prefer to manage investments and tax strategies entirely on their own
  • Are not ready to make changes when opportunities arise


What We Do Best

Our singular focus is to help you transition smoothly into retirement and thrive once you’re there. Here’s how we’ll help:

  • Determine if you’re truly ready to retire

  • Identify the best ways to turn savings into steady, reliable income

  • Create a monthly retirement paycheck that reflects your lifestyle, values, and comfort with risk

  • Align your paycheck, portfolio, and tax strategy

  • Safeguard your assets and your peace of mind—so you can focus on what matters most


How we integrate everything

  • Income Planning – structure a reliable retirement paycheck for your life

  • Investment Management – align your investments to fuel that income

  • Tax Planning – keep more of what you work for with smart tax decisions


Your First Step is Simple—And Free 

Even with a clear first step, it’s normal to feel unsure about what comes next. Retirement comes with two big questions: Am I ready? And if so, how do I pay myself each month in a way that feels right?

We’re here to help you find those answers—and create a plan that works for your life.

First, use our Retirement Spending Snapshot to see if you’re financially ready. It gives you a clear, personalized number for what you can safely spend each month—without running out too soon.

Then, if you’re ready, take the RISA® Assessment. It reveals the retirement income strategy that’s best able to structure your monthly paycheck around that number in a way that fits your preferences—whether you value flexibility, security, or a blend of both.

Both of these resources are completely free and take about 30 minutes combined to complete.

Finally, round out your journey with our book, How to Generate Retirement Income. While it’s not free, you can preview the first chapter to see how it brings your income, investments, and taxes together into one clear plan. It’s a complete guide to turning your savings into a steady paycheck, keeping your spending power strong, and making tax-smart decisions — so your retirement runs smoothly from day one.

Do yourself—and your retirement—a favor: Start with the Spending Snapshot. Then take the RISA. And if you want to go deeper, read the guide.
