Personal CFO
“If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.” - Benjamin Franklin
Is my advisor providing "Late Stage" college planning strategies to help minimize the cost of college?
Should I establish trusts as part of my estate plan?
Should I collect Social Security at age 62 or wait until age 70?
Am I optimizing my tax situation?
Is "buying and holding" the best way to grow and preserve my wealth?
Will you have enough to retire?
These are just some of the questions that you need to answer in order to proactively protect your financial future. However most of us are too busy managing a business, raising a family or just assuming that our current advisor is taking care of everything. Crucial decisions must be made now about paying for college and saving for retirement in order to lead a life of confidence and financial well being.
Tushingham Wealth Strategies will help you make smart decisions about your money. Our "Personal CFO" service will help you integrate college and retirement planning into one strategy. We will guide you in determining your best strategy to save and pay for college so you can protect your assets and income for retirement. As you near or transition to retirement we will help with Social Security claiming strategies, choosing the appropriate Medicare coverage, determining if you have enough money to retire and protecting your retirement income.
