We'll always be upfront about how a specific recommendation compensates us. See our Important Disclosures for full detail.
We work with a range of household situations. Rather than a hard minimum, the first call is about understanding your goals and whether our approach is a good fit for your situation.
Placeholder — state your actual fiduciary status here (e.g., whether you act as a fiduciary at all times, or only when providing advisory services), and be specific and accurate before this goes live.
Depending on your plan, recommendations may include fixed or fixed-indexed annuities, life insurance, and investment advisory services. We’ll always show you the specific product, its costs, and the alternatives we considered.

That’s exactly the window we focus on. Starting the planning conversation up to five years out gives you time to actually act on what we find, rather than reacting at the last minute.
You’ll hear from our client services team to confirm a time. The first meeting is a conversation, not a sales pitch, we’ll ask about your goals and current situation and explain how our process works from there.
